I am with you, I don't connect with him. It's getting better, but he's a bit of a try-hard to me. It's definitely not anything related to a lisp (which I have never heard). I do like how he asks hard questions sometimes.

Durst_Burp · 3/12/2019 12:04 pm

I've only listened to one episode with him so far so the jury is still out for me. But I did LOL at his ghost story.

goldrolex · 3/12/2019 12:11 pm

Absolutely has NOTHING to do with the lisp. I think someone hit it on the head - it's the try hard thing. Comes across as a sweaty try hard and I think he loooovvessss that he's so loved on the FB pages and Taylor isn't. I mean, I like being liked (dont we all) but something about it seems off.

NotAnExSIL · 3/12/2019 12:18 pm

I like Donny. He kind of reminds me of one of my really good friends, minus the lisssssp! However, I think it sucks that him and Daryn all all like...no, we don't want Stephen on the show. When I am like...YAS GIMME DAT TRAINWRECKKKKK

SoFetch · 3/12/2019 12:25 pm

I like how Donny calls Taylor out and tells her when she’s being irritating. It also seems like he takes more of an active role with social media to keep Taylor informed. Heaven forbit she learns how to work social media. You know, since she is a self-described influencer 🙄

..."If she does say so herself!"..... HA!

Her talking today about twitter being the place where all of the gossip, tea, and news goes down...I wanted to call in and be like, bitch, where you been?

She promises to be better at it, right?

Can you imagine if for some reason instagram had a reset and you had to re-gain all your followers? She would be in deep trouble.

Bethenny_Was_So_Rude · 3/12/2019 2:55 pm

I've enjoyed the addition of Donny to the show. He knows just how far he can push Taylor without being "mean" to her.

I think its pretty clear from the amount of followers she has on FB to what she has on IIG that a lot of those people are left over from Sirius and have never bothered to unfollow her because she isn't active enough to notice. She never pops up in my feed?

NotAnExSIL · 3/12/2019 3:33 pm

Her "@Thetaylorstreckershow" account only has about 7700 followers. Her "@taylorstrecker" has over 49k, and I agree with you FKFriday, I think a lot of them are leftovers.

Also, just creeping on her IG, how did I not know this Canyon Ranch weekend was a "thing"? Dr Wider getting in on the overpriced "womens weekend" trips?

She’s not growing in followers that’s for sure - Hannah has almost or is about to pass her

And Hannah only had 5K as of last fall and she gained almost all of them before the premiere of Summer House. She is allowed to call herself an influencer.... Taylor should not lol

Eh, he's whatever. I'm neutral, though I do like that he keeps TS in check. And, even more importantly... He ain't JB (he drove me effing c.r.a.z.y.)!

I like Donny as a producer, but I'm not a huge fan of him cohosting. I think he's done great things for the show, but I'd rather others cohost.

Siriusnj · 3/12/2019 9:59 pm

She actually posted a picture wearing an outfit that wasn't lumpy and black. It looks good. Then she went right back to lumpy and black.

He’s just starting to grow on me. I liked him a lot today. It always takes me a while to like someone new though. I hated Daryn (not Darby lol) at first, but now she’s one of my faves.

I should've specified - that's what I don't like. The cohosting. As a producer, he seems to know his stuff.

I've heard him in the background of Rob's show, so maybe he's working in a new timeslot?

Heygirlhey2006 · 3/13/2019 12:11 pm

I feel like Babs would have paid someone to get TS into a top school if she had thought of it lol

Beibersbutthole · 3/13/2019 12:15 pm

Imagine if theyd paid to fix her LSAT scores and TS was someones lawyer now

Bethenny_Was_So_Rude · 3/13/2019 1:12 pm

On this topic of colleges... how does Taylor not understand the astronomical advantage Zach had getting accepted into Harvard, simply by virtue of the alumni network? There are surely students just as qualified as him who could never get their foot in the door because they don't have the benefit of being a legacy. That's not to take anything away from his intelligence or his accomplishments... but he had an advantage, and it's not "fair", and Taylor needs to stop talking about him like he's the little match boy who worked his way up from scratch. He's a child of privilege... own it!

NotAnExSIL · 3/13/2019 1:55 pm

I definitely felt like calling in for the first time ever today over this whole stupid college thing. Don't act like Zach got in on his hard work/grades alone. Ivy league schools like that are notorious for continuing the family traditions and legacies and letting in the spawn of their esteemed graduates. Gimmie a break.

I'm tired of Taylor acting like she didn't come from money. The town she grew up in is a very well to do area, where generally the population there makes well over the avg for the state of Massachusetts and the housing is insane.

And this is coming from a person who legit probably got in to where I went to undergrad because my uncle went there and was a HUGE donor (i.e. building named after him).

All true. My little sister wanted to go to the same college as me but her grades were a little iffy. In the years between my graduation and her application, my parents made a bunch of donations under my name. Nothing even close to getting a building named after me (lol, I can't even imagine), but its a very small private school so I'm sure they noticed.

I mean this nicely, what has he done for the show? She still repeat every fucking story, rambles about topics for far too long, and talks abt the same topic with each co host days and days in a row. I swear that ‘I took the lsat because of Elle Woods’....just stop with it already!!!!

I don’t really notice when he is or is not there.

Her parents house is valued at $3,205,868 - over 3 MILLION people! Yes, I looked it up. Judge me. That isn't even upper middle class - that's wealth.
