Haha!!! I'm on a board like that! It started as an industry board, but has on off topic section that is the most random of stuff lol

Reddit subverses, or whatever the eff they're called, can be a fun time-suck too. I shy away from FB groups because the drama can get waaaaaaaaaay out of control. You honestly would NOT believe the drama I "saw" in various mom's groups I was in.

And PS!! Wtf with those exercise balls!!! I keep scrolling up and staring at them, and I cannot for the life of me figure out how one would use them for "normal" exercising!!

 
Hahaha same here- in th comments people are asking if the lady realizes what she's actually selling.


And I know what you mean about the mom fb groups- they are totally bananas. I don't really participate, I just read with my popcorn.

Using them for the intended purpose, I feel I would really injure myself. I have zero cordination using an actual excercise ball, these would just be a disaster!

I am seriously laughing OUT LOUD at the comments AND at the pics of those balls (pun intended!)!!!!! I barely looked the first time then read that comment, went back... that's when I spit out my water. Are they FOR REAL??? Do people really use those??? Holy f*ck.....

Honestly, who the hell would take her at this point? Not if they've listened to WU in the past year and a half....Taylor fucked herself spending the better part of a decade treating this job as a frivolous hobby, instead of honing her radio skills. Now she's 10 yrs in, with no discernible talent, and nowhere to go. I know that sounds harsh, but she's just not anywhere near as entertaining as she thinks she is, and that "blog" is a joke. I think her only hope is whatever the MTV thing is, and if it happens, we all know how...

I 100% think the show is ending...only because y'all sleuths have been right on everything else!

I'm beginning to think the same thing. What do you guys think Taylor would do if that's the case? I wonder if she would switch channels or join a different show. She talked about going to interviews a few weeks ago.

I think if they would have just gotten a permanent co-host, the show would have been salvageable but with this constant revolving door, there's no cohesion. It does make me sad because I feel so invested in the show.
 

 
I think Sam would have had her as a co host, not sure now though. I don't see her fitting into the boys club with both Sam & Jim and his listeners hated her whenever she was a guest on his show.

There is a new music/gossip station starting, I heard an ad for it last night. She doesn't seem to be crazy strong in any one area, that's not going to benefit her.

I think if she had embraced this board from the beginning, this could have been huge on her resume. Not a lot of shows have whole boards dedicated to them run by fans. She's hated on it from the beginning though, and in turn it's filled with a lot of people who are over her and she can't be letting potential bosss know about it and come read about how many people no longer listen and rather discuss sex balls then her.

For example- this is recent post:


Yesterday my boyfriend and I got into an argument about something he views as trivial but I'm quite pissed.

He always comes home and talks about his day and what's going on with his coworkers. They all have each other's numbers. Never thought anything of that part. However, his phone has been going off a lot lately with texts. I don't ask too much because one of his coworkers is paranoid and always thinks people are mad at him, he and my boyfriend text A LOT.

Today on our way to the grocery store he mentions that one of his coworkers, let's call her AP, is really upset lately. I met her and her husband in May at the company retreat, they seemed nice. Well, my boyfriend informs me that AP and her husband have been having a rocky relationship lately. He goes on to say that they've been together for 6 years and married for 1 year this November. AP has been confiding in my boyfriend about her marital problems and even shows him texts between her and her husband. He went on to give details of stuff they argue over.

My heart sank.

Little back story, this is pretty much how my ex fiancé's fling began with the girl in charge of his pay roll. She was well aware of who I was and was in a relationship herself. They vented their troubles to each other and all along he was acting normal at home. Literally mailed out our save the dates the day before I found out they were working "overtime" off the clock.

Now, I know it's not fair to make someone pay for what has happened in your past BUT I think that it's fair to define what is inappropriate and unacceptable.

Fast forward to last night. He could tell I was upset about something. I didn't know how to say what I was feeling in a way that it wouldn't get turned back around on me for "acting crazy" and "overreacting". So he asked what was wrong about 6 times. Each time I told him I didn't want to talk about it until I could gather my thoughts. He kept pushing the issue. So I just said it. I told him that I found it to be inappropriate that AP is confiding in him about her marital problems and told him that's how bad things start. He acted like he didn't understand. He said "We're friends. So I'm not suppose to let my friend vent and give her advice." They've only been friends since he started working for this company a little over a year ago. They only know each other through work. I told him that she shouldn't be discussing her marital issues with another man. He asked if it would be different if it was a man and not AP. I said "Absolutely!" He goes on to say that I'm being ridiculous and he's not attracted to her and it's not fair for me to assume that her venting to him means that he's going to cheat. I told him that it doesn't matter if he is attracted to her or not, it's inappropriate.

We haven't said much to each other since our argument last night. I'm pissed and kind of don't want to talk to him right now.

Am I overreacting?

ah my girl. I feel u and will have to write later.  ode the days of landlines.  this is the rule as I see it.  whether something is going on or potentially get started (which I'm not predicting it will), the marital rule goes like this: if there is a thing that makes one mate uncomfortable, it has to go or maybe change.  this is where the landline comes in.  trust is the fuel your relationship runs on.  your bf probably doesn't think he's doing anything wrong. in any case, all his friends should be yours and vice versa. so back in the day I'd propose she call on the house phone and maybe even talk to you sometime.  but perhaps it isn't time for that  have you met her?  how long is your relationship?  has he ever done anything to make you doubtful or is your distrust something that resides primarily in you? gotta go for now but todays show had to do with have platonic friends when married or in  relationship. so maybe someone is perusing this forum. I so wanted to call in today but I was driving to work and on verge of running late. hope this helps

We're not 100% sure, but she mentioned some sort of interview at MTV awhile back (maybe on a Periscope?) she wanted to be on Girl Code but that's getting axed. Matt's dad apparently was some big wig at MTV, so I think its safe to assume someone is calling in favors...

Her only saving grace right now is that there probably aren't too many stars wanting to get up at the ass crack to host a radio show.

Amy Phillips already does a Bravo reality recap show. I wonder if they won't completely axe the show but move it/cut it down like they did with Jenny Hutt. She went from two or three hours in the morning to one after Dr. Laura in the afternoon.

Am I overreacting?

I need to get on this board. 

This is EXACTLY why I am now a divorcee. My husband befriended someone at work (who I eventually became friends with, too) and they would talk about marital issues (I was unaware we had any in the first place). She got divorced first, and a month later my husband told me he wanted a divorce (after 5 months of marriage.....). They sat across from each other at work and talked all day long, and got too close. I had the feeling something was going on, and asked him to stop and to be moved to a new desk. But alas... I am on to bigger and better things!

I agree, she's gonna have to hustle for something! Unfortunately for her we already have Bitch Sesh to cover that niche and Taylor' is not even on the same planet as Casey & Danielle!! Those girls are hysterical, witty, smart, talented, and have a way larger following than T will ever have and their podcast has been on less than a year! They totally interact with and appreciate their listeners - KEY!!!

 
Amen to that, 420. I hate to say it though, but I don't think she'll need to hustle for a new job. I can see Matt pulling some strings and getting her a new job with zero effort whatsoever from Taylor. Some people manage to be lazy AF and coast through life. I see Taylor as one of those people. Granted, she may never become this huge star that she wants to be, but she'll get by.

Anyone listen this morning and hear Carin say something about Taylor having a huge change coming up? It was something like "You have a big change coming up" but I'm not sure if it was just a general comment, or specific to Taylor. Its around 8:40, I replayed it, but then a client called and I didn't hear it again.

So she obviously has something in the works. Maybe the Tay's can move to Philly (since T2 is such an Eagles fan) and Kenny and Taylor can get back together! (A girl can dream...)
