I think that conversation/comment is indicative of something much bigger. She has a very consistent history of having super strong opinions on something that she admits (usually in the same breath) she knows nothing about.

Yes. It is so hard to listen to her talk talk talk when she's missing a fact or have a fact wrong. OR when she says things like they are fact but they are just opinion. I do love hearing them talk about current events, because a lot of things brought up are not things I have conversations about it my real life. But if they are going to talk about it, just make sure you have it all straight. I listen on demand, but would totally call in often when I hear them state something wrong.

I still think it's different for someone who has a radio show. If she decides that she doesn't want to know what is happening in the world then it shouldn't be a topic on the show.

That I can agree with, don't make comments unless you can back it up with an educated opinion.

Yes especially when she is commenting on things she has ZERO experience on, such as being a stay at home mom, babies, politics, etc. And to whoever said they wanted to call in. Don't bother because they only accept calls who share the same viewpoints.

OMG this interview with Jeremy Sisto is so bethos. She's the worst interviewer. I'm about to throw my headphones down and stomp on them!! She also just said "I need to find somebody very rich. It's the key." and Jeremy said "That's why I didn't like you at first, I could tell this about you."

Agreed!! OMG she is so gross...even if you thought that, why would you say it out loud??? I have to roll my eyes when she bitches about how misunderstood she is...no, people are just reacting to the person you show yourself to be...

This is the reason why I skip absolutely every interview she does. She does abs no research and talks about herself the whole damn time. (Prob like the G rancic interview) Victoria was the one back in the day who did a good interview. Just stop interviewing people then!

The Olympics Were held in LA when our grandparents were born and then again when Taylor was an infant child. I think it's ok she didn't know they had been held there. Fall on your sword about her not knowing news stories on something a bit more important.

So we should let her off the hook about anything in history I'm guessing? Doesn't need to know about anything unless it happened when she was old enough to remember it? Strange expectations for a radio host....

Honestly I'm not falling on any sword for anyone. I'm not the one who looks crazy on live radio everytime I open my mouth. I do believe 3/4th's of what Taylor says is for effect...she is just trying to get people's attention and trying to be outrageous so she gets a reaction. Just like a little kid who will do anything for the attention...positive or negative.

I do believe many people forget that as a host... on a radio show. It might be a good idea to know shit. Remember Chris Rocks stand up? Speaking about people who Love to Not Know Shit? I feel its almost like she wants to play the dumb girl, but sadly I think its for real. Shes not 3, shes 32. Everyone (most) people know things that happened decades before their life. Same with pop culture, shes not an expert on pop culture at all, unless it involves the tiny bubble of her life. It does get frustrating especially for those of us her age or older. Use your head a little more, please.

Yeah, I feel like she thinks it's cute that she has no idea what she's talking about. So not cute.

Not cute at all. It totally discredits her whole "empowering women" ideology. A few days ago when she was talking about hating blowies and not watching porn (AGAIN...we get it) I was thinking, "she sounds like she's 22 and not 32...." Not because of her sexual experiences, or lack of, but because of the way she talks about it. There's a way to keep your innocence/be demure without sounding like an immature idiot.

That's what she should be doing as a host though, getting people worked up so they are engaged. Doesn't matter if it's agreeing or disagreeing. Howard didn't get huge discussing puppies & rainbows.

This. I have a friend who acts like that, she totally thinks its attractive to play the dumb girl. Drives me nuts because she's quite well read and always knows whats going on in current events. If there are guys around though, she plays the ditz. Might have worked at 19, not so much anymore, and if it does, you don't want the people it attracts in your life.

Wakeupfan420 · 9/04/2015 8:16 am

Ummmm is T for real calling other people lazy and talking about how she is 100% productive at work? WOW.

jaw dropped. not sure what her angle on this argument is.

Husbandpillow · 9/04/2015 8:30 am

Hahaha, I was just coming here to post this! She is SO delusional. First of all, I'm sorry, but 3 hours of Wakeup radio (less than 3 hours with breaks), is NOT that difficult. I don't care what anyone says. Many, many people wake up as early as she does and put in a FULL 8 hours (or more!). I believe Kenny works a lot more, and a lot harder than Taylor does, because he also does stand up, and has side projects (Wedgerino), etc. She is so unbelievably out of touch.

Husbandpillow · 9/04/2015 8:31 am

Oh, and lest we forget how difficult it is to look up "news" stories on gossip sites. So hard!!!

She's going to be in for a rude awakening if/when this gig ends.

kbk88 · 9/04/2015 9:01 am

She really said that? Wow.

Agreed. It's all relative but 3 hours of work is not hard. She said she spends her nights "preparing". No she doesn't. She can barely do a blog post or post on insta or figure out her fb pwd. There are real shows on sirius that actually put in work. She should listen to them but she prob doesn't even listen to her competition or other shows on sirius. Which is dumb. She got this job as like a freebie and she still treats it as such. There isn't even a reply of her show.

When Sam was on, she said doesn't listen to any other shows because she's afraid she'll start copying them.....something along those lines.

First off, I love coming to this page and catching up on everything, particularly when it's gossiping and speculating on things. I am a huge fan of the show and started listening a few years ago... But I am so confused about why some people come on to this page and bash Taylor and the show over and over and over? Like, if you are listening to her every day and taking the time to post, you must still be fan, right? Otherwise, you know you have options to listen to something else. OR you may just be a certain troll(s) attempting to try and take down others....

Amen! I think we need to talk about what is great about the show not just go back and forth with all of the negativity!

Husbandpillow · 9/04/2015 11:12 am

Honestly, there's just not that much great about the show anymore, sadly. Isn't there a thread on here about what people love about the show?

kbk88 · 9/04/2015 11:15 am

If people are still listening (which the vast majority of people here are), does it really matter? The whole reason this was started was because anyone who said anything on Facebook that wasn't just praising Tay and the show were getting bashed. People have their opinions and that's fine.

We all love the show, just mad that it has go so downhill in the past year. This is a great way to talk to each other why we are frustrated with T and the show. I can listen to something else, but I'm hopeful that the show will turn around and be great again. So in the meantime I will hate listen.

I agree with you. I love the show and have for years. But I agree there are a lot of channels on Sirius. When Cosmo went off I started finding other shows because I don't get a replay of Wake up or CWP. I've stumbled upon some good stuff. I see it as entertainment like television and don't take it seriously. It entertains me.
I think it's like "hate watching" for a lot of people.They watch, and listen, to have something to hate. I would rather poke myself in the eye with a hot knife than listent to Dr. Laura. If I'm in the car and she's on, I scroll around.

Amen... and would appreciate not being called a troll if I give an opinion that's not glitter-filled. I used to love Taylor but lately she's a mess of contradictions. If I'm honest, I'm not sure WHY I'm listening to the show. Maybe to know what everyone is talking about on here? Definitely to hear Kenny now that he's back! I go back and forth with T...there are moments I feel bad for her, moments I feel sad for her, moments I think she is a HOT MESS...but I find more and more she's a spoiled, entitled brat that is not willing to work for what she wants. She has/had SO MUCH potential but after listening to her for almost 10 years, you start to see a theme. It's hard to feel sorry for someone when she continues to tell story after story about how everyone was so mean to her in middle & high school (she did that again on Thurs show when debating with K about why she'd never go to her HS reunion) and then she does what I would call 'bragging' about how she only wants to be friends with people on HER terms.

Anyway, that's just a little (or a lot) more than anyone wants to know about my thinking...and why I continue to listen. If you don't want to read what I have to say, take note of my screen name and skip over it. Thanks!
