-
BadkatdadDemetria is a National TreasureI said what I said
-
MetromatchYesss!!Demetria’s "little podcast" is the crisp, refreshing recap of news and pop culture my intellect craves.
-
MidanelleFriend in my headI look forward to the weekly episodes, Demetria relates in a way that comes straight from the friends group chat! She’s a keeper.
-
RoseSimoneBeen on!I’ve been rocking with Demetria since A Belle In Brooklyn (the book). This sista never misses…she’s been on! One of the prolific voices of our generation. Demetria for president! Too much? Ok. Just listen to the podcast! K. Bye!
-
AlikatBKLove me some Demi!My friend in my head! I’m her amen choir, co-signing on everything every episode. My hands down favorite podcast!
-

-
fe_niixOn Point!A colleague shared this podcast with me for a recent train ride and I’ve enjoyed this podcast ever since! Demi and I are close in age and I find myself enjoying and almost completing her sentences at times. Wonderful to hear varied perspectives and opinions on numerous topics! Thank you Demi you’re on point!
-
Sw3$LoveAlways looking forward to hearing Demi’s latest shenanigans. So much fun. Thank you for good solid content.
-
Jreymorena10 StarsThis is my favorite podcast! I love Demi☺️
-
7LadiBugsBeyonce Is Not Godshe always goin off about something. Acts like everybody is supposed to like Beyonce.
-
AshvoyageIt's okayPodcast is good if you need something to pass the time. She doesn't really discuss anything of substance she just vents. When she reads ads she over annunciates and sounds like a robot.
-
caribqueen63Love....Thanks so much Sis! I’m enjoying each one! I looooooove the Guilded Age too, loved your re-cap!!!💕
-
aye lordAll of your episodes are must listens! The story telling is entertaining and captivating! Well doneHere’s to another 500 episodes
-
Demi1982AvidListenerLove DemetriaI look forward to this podcast every time it comes out and I find myself thinking “what would Demetria say?” About topics of the day 👌🏾love
-
Dulce B12!Shameful Yesss!As a faithful listener, I can’t believe I hit the nail on the head with the couple that wasn’t pleased with your interview. I remembered when you spoke about it at that time. Bob & Sheila would have been too much for this episode…
-
Poem44No real aimThis pod has fallen off. I used to enjoy the cultural and pop culture segments. Now it’s seems like a personal diary that poorly edited peppered heavily with ads. Not engaging or seems to care about audience retention.
-
CtayyyMissing somethingI’ve been a faithful listener for quite awhile but I believe that pod is missing something. A production team mostly. It’s poorly edited, always late, and inconsistent in its content. Like many others noted, it’s way more ads than actual episode. The lateness is almost comical at this point. Demetria travels often and it’s apart of the appeal but I believe she thinks we care about her personal life. It’s almost like a diary and extremely offputting. Where this podcast shines is in it’s examinations of cultural happenings, the pop culture segments are where the gold is! But this chick like to tell her business. The fast forward button is your friend. I hope she begins to tread lightly on the personal musings and give more effort into producing a great podcast that explores pop culture in a relevant and meaningful way.
-
AKA Queen MabWaaaay too many ads now, and too little entertainment commentary😕1) I'm 100% ok with some ads in a podcast — but not when they're running for almost as long as the content! It's gotten SO MUCH WORSE this year and is ridiculous at this point... 2) Hearing about Demetria's daily life is cool but, like the ads... there's way too much now. Please bring back more of her commentary on entertainment culture.
-
MahletMore content please!I’ve listened to this podcast religiously since its inception. Really good stuff and a voice very much needed amongst the masses. Lately tho, the scales have tipped heavily toward more ads and less content. I get having to make a living but when ads take up almost half of the time, not only is it frustrating but it also cheapens the quality as well.
-
Ninasym77This has become one of my favoritesDemetria is insightful, hilarious, and her ability to tell stories especially about her adventures are the best! Sometimes it feels like inner monologue and others it is like I am catching up with a friend. Join the odyssey and listen
-
HdjbujcgThe ADS!!!This has been my favorite podcast for awhile now, but the ads outweigh the content. An episode can be 42 minutes long, but the ads take up 18 minutes of that time. Episodes now feel rushed and incomplete. I understand that she is out of the country and I also understand that ads pay the bills; however, for such a great podcast it would be nice to have more content.
-
KPompeyGood show, love the travel contentBtw Airbnb has been giving a lot of people loads of trouble lately. I think I’m going back to hotels indefinitely. The company and hosts are becoming more and more unpredictable and sketchy.
-
TyvitoThe hypocrisy…I remember when someone wrote in to say the opening “Ladies and Gentlemen..” wasn’t inclusive. The tone in your voice said “oh please..idc” when you discussed it. Then when you started saying “and all of those…” the very first time was said with your usual tone when you say something that you think isn’t worth your time. But nowwwww, you’re the voice of inclusion. Lol. It’s so funny. But as a avid listener, the hypocrisy is always front and center. Remember shrieking when the Queen died like it was Beyonce? Chile….
-
Fan o' good SyfiAwesome podcastThank you for sharing your life journey in Ghana and black culture updates. It’s clear you’re doing what you love, and thank you for sharing it with the world! You already know this, but remember that people are more likely to complain than compliment, so for every bad review, there are 10-20 listeners who love your podcast yet never post :-) The 10-20 who never post are your true target audience and let the others keep it moving. UPDATE on July 29 2023 Also, thanks for being so inclusive because we need to be reminded that oppression and exclusion isn’t just something to be fought when it comes from the less melanated. We can be inclusive and still be authentically Black.
-
ccbylondonJust Go Ahead and ListenDemetria has always been one of my faves. Years ago I stumbled upon her IG which lead me to her books. Since then I’ve supported all of her work. This podcast is no different. True to the title, it’s the most perfect balance of ratchetness and respectability with a heavy sprinkle of travel. Add this to your podcast rotation today 💗
-
ButtaworthIt’s definitely RachetHorrible ad placements and seems like the topics aren’t researched but on the fly. This could be a good podcast but it seems like more of an obligation instead of something Demetria wants to do.
-
Sheedah's ViewHappy Birthday D!Happy Birthday Queen. Thank you for the podcast. I too loved traveling around Europe. Keep it coming.
-
roxythefoxy79Thank you. Thank youI'm so glad I found this podcast 1 year ago. I know Demetria's name from her days as a writer on a small publication. To be blessed 2x a week with her insights, humor and love of all things black brings consistent joy.

08prettygirlWe understand but not a good look.I am a day one listener and I wanted to share that this current episode is so far below the level of content we usually receive from you. I am one of your listeners who has no problem with late episodes or sometimes questionable edit’s because the content is always top tier. But I am honestly disappointed in this episode to the point I could stand to listen to the end. I was very excited to hear you speak with your friend and learn about her project. I hate to leave a message in a negative light but it wasn’t the best spotlight for your friend or you. I was a fateful listener during the pandemic when the interview sound was extremely questionable but stuck it out because you were doing the best you could as a one women shop. I know she is incredibly busy but maybe a retapping is in order? As a dedicated listener I always pray for your health, success, and safe galavantings. I will definitely be back after your well deserved and earned time for you!

berni2012Too many loud ads,but entertains and is sometimes informativeThere are too many loud ads,but this podcaster can be entertaining and is sometimes informative—especially about the backstory regarding how creatives get things done in the US entertainment industry. The loud ads, including those read in a louder, clipped voice by the podcaster, make me fast forward and interrupt what could be very enjoyable episodes. If the producers come up with a way to not have so many loud ads that interrupt the content so awkwardly,they will keep current listeners and increase the number of listeners.
-
JoJo ATLGreat content but…Feels like I’m listening to one of my girlfriends for each episode. Only minor downside is that there’s literally ad breaks every 5 minutes. Totally understand that sis needs to get her coins but has more ad time than 2+ hour episodes that I listen too, this diluting the value of the ads. Is there a way to find a balance with content and sponsors?
-
KaiBoogie01$You Rock!I love how organized Demetria is in her presentation. The podcast transitions seamlessly; easy to follow. Keep it up! A breath of fresh air, a real one, a girl after my own heart. I’m so happy I didn’t let that reality show portrayal of you steer me away.
-
PrefHERredLong Time StanBack here after a long time and just wanna say the theme music is nostalgic and exciting ❤️.
-
Khac17Praying for you to regain peace of mindI’m in tears as I listen to your story. No one should ever have their sense of safety stolen from them. It is one of my biggest fears, especially as a woman. Please take your time to heal and recoup. Even if it means ghosting social media and podcasting. Sending love and prayers from Philly!
-
Ebonia416A Favorite PodcastI absolutely love this podcast for so many reasons. I look forward to Tuesdays and Fridays to hear about what DLL is up to and to get her take on current events. Thank you for sharing your life with us. I am inspired to see the world!

-
dew579I believe you and unfortunately been in a similar situation praying for youAnd your safety and wellbeing
-
M. ZizzleWe love you! You are heard and deserve to be and feel safeYou are in my thoughts and prayers… I happily listen to you as if you are my older sister biweekly. What happened to you is not your fault and you not deserve any negative pushback or energy regarding what that predator attempted to do. Shame on him and anyone else that blames the victim, you are a victim. I stand with you and love you as a sister from another mister!
-

Samwhite5Emmy Worthy PodcastingI don’t know if Podcasting is a category in the Emmys, but THIS podcast deserves an Emmy. We have been on a journey with Demi for a couple of years now and it has been nothing but genuine excellence. I would give R&R 10 starts if it were possible.
-
Jhas HI look forward to it each weekI love Demetria and I love her podcast. She not only talks about what is going on in entertainment but current events and how they impact minorities and women. She also talks about her experiences and how they have shaped her and brought her to her current place in life and that makes her relatable. I’ve been following Demetria ever since her GMA and reality tv days and back then I liked her but this podcast in a way makes her feel as if she is a friend and this is just girl talk over some wine. And her choices of special guests are superb. Sending her much love and light during this difficult time. Just letting her know that I am one of the people in the world that is supporting you, no one should ever feel violated.
