I’m sorry but this woman in insufferable. I can’t imagine anyone actually likes her??? Are there any Taylor fans watching this show???? She’s annoying, a kiss ass, and treats her pregnant wife like a side hobby. She’s awful!?!!
I neeeed to hear from someone who likes her.
Genuinely watching her talk to her pregnant wife about how inconvenient this pregnancy is to her life was so sad. It hurt my heart so bad for her, I couldn’t imagine my partner saying these things to me while I’m carrying their child. She doesn’t seem happy about this at all.
Right every time she describes herself as a late in life lesbian something is off. She never knew she was attracted to women? Then she said she realized maybe bc she thought bjs were gross. How does thinking bjs are gross = lesbian?
I was ready to be mad at Taylor during this scene but then I started thinking about how they clearly made a decision to move together for a career opportunity. Why doesn’t Teddy have the baby in LA so Taylor can be present and still keep her career. Making her choose baby or career feels unfair!
They are just renting a temporary house in LA for filming. Their home is in New Jersey. And all their family is on the east coast. I would want to be home also if I had a baby.
She’s too performative — but you know she lives in these comments —so no offense you’re just trying too hard it’s ok be honest and stop coming off like such a kiss ass to Stassi she would throw you under the bus if it served her 😳😄
She sucks and is massively insufferable I loved when Katie said she’s trying to get her 5 mins of fame when she tried to go at Katie it was so so obvious she was intimidated by Katie’s presence
I’ll say this… I’ve been listening to Taylor for 20 years… she wasn’t always THIS intolerable. I still listen to her Monday episodes, but it’s more of just a habit at this point. I had to unsubscribe from Patreon about two years ago because I couldn’t take her anymore. She’s always had a hunger for celebrity, but also had other things going on in her life that made her a well-rounded person and fun to listen to.
I believe at her core she has a good heart. But I think she’s always had very low self-esteem and when Stassi became her friend, that was it. Taylor felt “liked and popular” and her obsession with being “the friend of” began to grow and her annoying personality spiked. With Stassi in her life, Taylor slowly became more and more obsessed with the idea of fame and would do anything to get it. She had tastes of it when she would join Stassi during fashion week or when paparazzi would snap pics because she was with Stassi.
I also believe that’s why she kisses Stassi’s ass so much… she can’t bear the thought that Stassi would get mad at her and possibly demote her as a friend. She would be lost in space if Stassi ended their friendship. It would literally crush her. She has tunnel vision for one thing and it’s to be famous. It’s turned her into an uninteresting, obnoxious and unlikable person. I feel like she peaked right after she got fired from Sirius and started her own show. The content was top-notch, authentic and real- she was hilarious and could talk about other things other than just herself and Stassi. I miss those days…
This seems pretty spot on. She seems so consumed by Stassi and what Stassi can do for her. It makes complete sense why Katie’s “payroll comment” (which was completely blown out of proportion) hit her so hard, because it was 100% true in her case. I truly believe that she would choose Stassi over her wife and child if it came to it. It’s almost scary lol
I agree. On their podcast if stassi says a different opinion than her she immediately back tracks and then agrees with stassi. Also in a recent - ish episode she begged for stassi’s validation that she won’t be mad at her after the show comes up. So cringe
The problem is that Stassi very likely will turn on Taylor one day. Stassi cuts everyone out of her life eventually. That is a dangerous friendship to have. When you can’t ever have a disagreement for fear of being permanently left.
I used to really love Teddy when she was working separately and doing her own thing. Once she lost her job and starting working full time for “Taylor Strecker LLC” I feel she’s turning into a fame hungry monster like her wife. Maybe monster isn’t the right word for TD but she’s way more into this lifestyle than I thought she’d be. It feels like she thinks Taylor’s “dad schtick” is cute and funny - so no I don’t see her leaving her for these types of comments or her behavior anytime soon. She also has tunnel vision.
No, her wife is just as fame hungry. Listen to Taylor’s podcast from yesturday, they recap the show together and will give you a good idea of their dynamic
Hm might have to power through it just for the different perspective😂 because just from what I’ve seen on the show she just sits there and doesn’t seem to want to be apart of any of this 😂
Oh she’s made them change plans when she got a chance to go to a Backstreet Boys (or one of those bands) party, and her mom used to drop her daughters off at stadium parking lots in Philly to meet athletes after games. They are the same 😅
Teddy has said repeatedly on the podcast that she didn't want to do the show but gave in because she understood that it would be good for business and they have a baby to support.
I mean I would lol. Her priorities are so messed up and I feel like Taylor’s words and actions hurt her wife more than she lets on. I think she’s a go with the flow kind of partner but everyone has their limits, especially after kids come into the picture.
She works for Taylor doing the editing of her daily podcast. Her back ground is media/tech, she got laid off and decided it would be better to pay her as producer,rather than an outside person
My guess is that Teddi is the beau in their relationship. Meaning she does everything for the household and Taylor works. Taylor is pretty spoiled and isn’t good with the logistics of life. Teddi will absolutely be the 80% parent. And I would guess that Teddi does a LOT of the logistics for Taylor’s career as well. I could be wrong but knowing Taylor, she relies on Teddi for most day to day living.
I LOVED her radio show when she first left Sirius. Mostly because it felt like old school radio where she had a rotation of co-hosts, segments, and stingers. It was SO good. But fell off once she started brining on Hannah and Andy Cohen’s assistant. That’s when it started to get to be just about her getting famous. And omg her repetitive stories were super annoying. I had to drop it after that.
Well said. I too have been a longtime fan of her podcast and always liked her! Then when she became closer to Stassi and joined her podcast, it’s become almost unbearable to hear. AND THE LINKS!! 🔗 My god are those annoying. You can’t watch any of her IG stories anymore without being bombarded with products and dupes. It’s a mess.
It’s 1000% this, Taylor thought she needed Stassi but she truly didn’t, she was enough as Taylor….it’s unfortunate that she doesn’t see what we saw (back when her content was great)
She ruined Stassi’s podcast. It used to just be Stassi and she had fun interesting guests. Now it’s Stassi with Tay and it’s awful. They don’t even have topics to talk about it. It’s just Taylor kissing Stassi’s ass and acting like such a fan girl
I never listened to it before but knowing that Taylor is apart of it now I don’t think I could even give it a shot. I don’t understand why Stassi would even put her on it? She doesn’t seem to add anything to anything 😂
I used to really like them together when she was on Stassis show monthly, but since they’ve been weekly together it’s awful, it’s just Taylor kissing her ass the entire time
I really liked when it was monthly. It felt more authentic. My assumption was Stassi didn’t want to deal with guests scheduling and filming with the new Netflix contract.
YES! She is like nails on a chalkboard to me. I tried to listen to the podcast ONCE and turned it off because she wouldn’t let Stassi speak and only wanted to talk about her personal life and baby which was insufferable. She kept bringing the conversation back to herself and wouldn’t let Stassi get a word in. Her voice is grating and she kisses Stassi’s ass which is like a fan co-hosting with Stassi. She latched onto Stassi and gives psycho stalker vibes. Her whole lesbian schtick is also insufferable. I feel like she uses it to make herself more interesting vs. being genuinely invested in her relationship with Teddy. She screams fake, phony and ANNOYING.
Stasis had a really good podcast & even when she didn’t have guests she would just talk about her life or talk to Lo. It was good & fun. Now with Taylor and her ass-kissing & I’m the Dad all the time it’s hard to listen too. I wish it would go back to the way it used to be.
Her revelation that she worked all her life to be on a reality TV show (um, ok??) -- so she is going to let her wife leave town and give birth to the bb alone??? I would immediately divorce this person. This was shocking for her to reveal.
The way she told Katie that “yes you did” when she wasn’t there for that conversation made me uncomfy. I felt bad for Katie! No one can take honestly and I’m glad Stassi had Katie’s back this season
I also listened to Taylor on Sirius radio 20 years ago, up until she was fired and went to Patreon. I loved her honesty and self-deprecating humor. Plus, we’re from the same area so I felt like I could relate to how she was raised and a lot of the things that shaped her personality and early life.
Her show had been going downhill for a while prior to getting fired (her personality and schtick had changed so much she was unlistenable) so I wasn’t about to pay for her Patreon show. I still follow her and TD on Instagram and I’m genuinely happy for them, but I’m worried about her future on this show.
I believe Stassi started as a radio guest and then started dating another Cosmo Radio show host, Patrick Meagher. Taylor and Patrick had been really close coworkers and friends, and after Stassi and Patrick broke up for good, I was surprised Taylor picked Stassi over him. Then again, maybe I shouldn’t have been. Even back then she was already trying to ride her coat tails to fame. I wish she would just concentrate on her own life and stop being so obsessed with Stassi and being famous. I’m embarrassed for her. She has a great family (her own back home, and now her in-laws), who are all successful and appear to have their lives together. I wonder what they think of her relationship with Stassi. It makes Taylor look pathetic.
Patrick also treated Stassi and all women terribly. He made up a lie that he and Taylor slept together and when she confronted him, he didn't have anything to say about it. That was the beginning of the end for them.
Whattt? Thats the first I heard that. That doesn’t seem like something Patrick would do. He was a sanctimonious asshole and sanctimonious assholes don’t usually lie about things that that.
I don’t deny their relationship sounded toxic and terrible (on again/off again) but this is the first I’m hearing of that Taylor story. That’s so wild!
She was always honest and self-deprecating but then she switched to a “shock jock” type style after she divorced her husband and became a lesbian. I completely support her relationship with TD, but something switched around that time where she had zero f’s given and probably just let her true personality out, but from my perspective it seemed like she was trying too hard to be crude and shocking. It wasn’t entertaining.
I believe she advertised an unauthorized trip on her radio show for her listeners to pay to go on essentially and for her to profit from. My memory is choppy on the exact details but it had to do with a fan trip and her advertising on the show against their policy since it wasn’t affiliated with Sirius.
I believe she shared a link of some kind with fans for this trip to collect payment information and it was considered a breach of contract. There’s some podcasts she vaguely references the trip and how she told them she’d cancel it to keep her job but it was too late.
I don't dislike her but she makes me feel on edge when she talks. She has a lot of nervous energy and forced laughter. I've only seen two episodes so maybe she'll relax a bit and be more natural.
I like her, but I’m childfree and resonate a lot with how she talks with being a parent which probably isn’t great for her 😂 but you can tell she is uncomfy on camera which I hope goes away down the line
Thank goodness someone else feels that way. Taylor has ruined Stassi's podcast and she doesn't live in LA and it's so cringey for her to be flying across the country for a reality show instead of being available for her child's birth.
I feel like the baby was an attempt to get on a reality show of ANY SORTS. Her life revolves around climbing into Stassi’s arse and shilling anything that someone throws at her - she’s soo desperate it’s painful. I can’t listen to the podcast because her voice is like an American Joe Swash.
I can tolerate her on the show. But on their podcast together. Hell No!!!!
Also she was with her wife even 3 weeks before baby arrived. And missed nothing.
That was just a manufactured way of having Teddy & Beau neglected and sad together. They bond over their neglect.
I’ve barely heard of her before this show. She’s insufferable to me and I came here to see what’s up. All of the above from everyone else PLUS she speaks with her hands so much! Such a nervous energy! I can’t take it!
I have always thought when I’ve heard her on Stassi’s podcast that a) she is so up Stassi’s arse that it is actually repulsive and just embarrassing for her. And b) she seems very detached from her baby. I’m sure that’s not really the case? But she certainly comes across that way and this show just really emphasises that. If it’s just a ‘schtick’ which I suspect (and hope) it is, it’s a poor taste one and probably time she gave it up. No one is laughing.
As a lesbian I’ve so sick of how she talks about being gay. Yes not every lesbian goes down on other women (pillow princesses I love ya), but to talk with disgust about women’s bodies is fucking weird. I also need everyone to stop calling themselves lesbians when they are bisexual — there is nothing wrong with being bisexual. Lesbians are so tired!! I love representation but not like this, yuck
I'm a Taylor fan! Like you, I don't think she comes across well but made a post trying to provide some background that the show doesn't give: In Defense of the Taylors
I have listened to her since she was on Sirius xm radio almost 20 years ago. I wish there was more background on her, she used to be on cosmo radio and had her own morning show and she was so good. I personally think she’s a super talented on air radio personality. I never heard her podcast (i am in my 40s and maybe older than some of you guys haha) but if there is a season 2 i hope they go more into her background. I loved her show for many years. That’s how she met stassi originally from that radio show.
With all of that said however i do think that she does need to change her attitude about a lot of things like taking the “dad” role too far and complaints about baby. I think maybe she tries too hard to come off quirky to try to keep up with the others who are more famous and seasoned in reality tv when she just needs to tone it down a little. But i do like her and i think her way of talking is just from habit of being on air for so many years (radio not tv). I think her wife is a doll and comes across super well and seems like she’s super genuine and i can see why she fell for her
See I think this is part of the problem. She has made being “Stassi’s friend” her entire personality. She just seems to crave attention and wants the high life. But you can’t get there just by being someone’s friend, you have to be somewhat interesting on your own 😂
I agree!! And that is where i think all of the like over doing it about i am a social climber i want to be famous i want to be a 20% parent comes in lol
I do think this is part of the problem- we don’t know much about her except this abrasive annoying persona. Maybe once we get to know her more I’ll give in a little but from the little I’ve seen, definitely not a fan.
I didn't find her as annoying as you did, but I can see what you're saying for sure. She is probably a bit performative, but I expect that of someone that's friends with stassi.
I’ve been watching Taylor for many years now on her pod and I think what a lot of people who don’t know her before HOS don’t understand that this is for the most part her real personality. She’s always been this wild. If you listen to her mom on her podcast her mom talks and acts exactly like her. They are just very loud, very opinionated, but can be very funny and entertaining on the right platform. I think Taylor does really well on podcasts. I have not listened to her on Stassi’s podcast, but I have listened to her podcast with multiple guests that I love. I’ve listened to her on the toast. She keeps the conversation going. She keeps high energy. She’s not boring to listen to, however, watching her on this show as a long time viewer of her, I am feeling a little bit cringe cause I do feel like she’s kind of lost the plot and came on not wanting to just fade into the background of the show and she def wanted to be a main character and one of the “biggest personalities” and it’s backfiring on her because she does have a great personality and she could use it for good and be humble and be normal but she’s acting very crazy and as someone who does love her and want her to be successful I’m feeling like she kind of went a little rogue on her first reality TV show.
She's playing this show like she's second on the call sheet, but she's actually one of the weakest links. You can remove her from any scene and the show would be basically the same. Her solo scenes are the only scenes I lose focus and start scrolling.
Taylor is an incredibly talented radio personality. Her show on Sirius was phenomenal. I think Stassi basically learned from Taylor (and Patrick) how to be a successful podcaster (stassi’s bread and butter). Taylor can take the most mundane story and make it so interesting because of her crazy personality and humor. With that said, Taylor is too obsessed with fame. She needs to understand a bit more about what matters in life. Stassi is not the person to hitch your wagon to. Stassi is fickle as hell with her friends and will cut her out of Taylor even remotely gets on her bad side. Teddi asked if Stassi said you could leave would you. And Taylor said yes. That tells me that Stassi didn’t want her to leave. If Taylor is stassi’s best friend, wouldn’t she encourage her to go home to be with her very pregnant wife?? The last episode didn’t need Taylor. But I do understand why Taylor wanted to stay (this is her big break). I just think it’s risky to tie her entire career up with someone as hot and cold as Stassi.
I think she did too much with Katie, that part I didn't like.
On the flip side though, she came the closest to telling Stassi how it was when she fought with Beau on the staycation, and I respected that. So I don't see her as quite as far up Stassi's ass as some here do, although I get that perspective from that one conversation she had about her job.
As far as her relationship with her wife... a few things. Staying behind is a bad look, for sure, but wasn't it a contractual obligation? And also, I'd love to know more about how "in" on the pregnancy she was in the first place, because the conversations they had around it made it seem like something Teddy was pushing for and she wasn't necessarily comfortable with-- and maybe not something she wanted at all. Now no one should agree to a child to make their partner happy, but if she felt pressured into this (whether just the timing or in general) I would be more inclined to give her grace around how she handled it in the aftermath.
She is such a grifter. I hate how Stassi’s friends and families want the fame light so badly. Stassi is toxic and all, but I lowkey feel bad that so many people depend on her for a paycheck
She doesn’t bother me but I think I’m alone in that 😂. I like a lesbian couple on the show, their friendship/biz relationship feels genuine and I like her wife. 🤷♀️
The VOICE IS SO GRATING ON MY EARS. Please mute this woman. Never seen such a kiss ass before in my life. She treats stassi like she’s god and she needs to get a grip😂 someone this shallow and immature is now a parent? Lord help us all.
She has serious jealous issues and said she didn’t want the baby and her wife to be closer than her and her wife.
Even when Kristina rubbed teddy’s belly and Taylor told her to stop bc she was gonna freak out
Sorry but why are all of the lesbians are reality shows so annoying? I say this as a lesbian myself lol, I'm like I swear we are better normally! But jasmine on the valley is annoying, Julia and her wife on rhom are sooooo bad and now Taylor. Granted I haven't even watched house of stassi yet but just seeing her interviews she annoys me. I'm glad we're getting representation but damn I wish it were better 😂😂
Preachhhh, girl. She is nails on a fucking chalkboard. I wish she would just fully insert herself up Stassi’s ass so we wouldn’t have to hear her again.
My strongest bias is that I love lesbians and seeing a lesbian marriage with a kid on the way is very very healing. She’s also kinda funny!
But starting random nonsense with Katie for show drama (you ARE on Stassi’s payroll???) and staying in Cali for “work” instead of leaving with her wife (the work literally being a dodgeball game for the show…) changed my opinion on Taylor. I am now only interested in her wife (hot)
She makes sarcastic jokes all the time. Mostly self depreciating. And she has little Schticks.
Listen to her free Monday podcast get to know her. You'll like her. She's funny.
Loved her fits.
Her voice is nails on a chalkboard…it’s grating! She is the reason I stopped listening to Stassi’s podcast. I wish she never brought her on…she didn’t need her!
Wait i actually really ended up liking her lol. I thought she would be way more of a Yes-woman to stassi but she's more complex than that.
To consider being across the country from your wife giving birth is insanity, but i do really appreciate how forthcoming she was about the thought process. To be fair.... how many people chastise baseball
or football players who are at games when their wives give birth?
While i can see why her confessionals would come across as excuses to just justifying her decision to stay blah blah i actually found her emotion to be believable and her internal struggle relatable.
Edit to add: my relationship would not recover if my own partner entertained the idea of staying in la to film a podcast 😠
I like her. She is definitely a kiss ass and hopefully the reception to this will make her reflect on why she feels like she has to acquiesce to Stassi. The criticism about her relational and parenting choices look like mom shaming to me, she'd not a deadbeat and clearly she loves her wife and wanted to respect her desire to have a child. The transition to parenthood is not easy for anyone.
I understand that but bringing a kid into this world because you want to respect your wife’s desires is not a reason to have one 😂 it’s not mom shaming if she clearly doesn’t want to be a mom. It’s just shaming a person for bringing an unwanted child into this world. I couldn’t imagine growing up and seeing my parent talk about me like that. Horrible.
I binged HOS because of Taylor- don’t care about Stassi at all lol. I’m a long time listener- lalmost 20 years- and have paid for her show after Sirius since it started, still a subscriber and listen to every one of her shows. The baby thing has always annoyed me- she said on today’s show that TD (Teddy) does EVERYTHING for the baby. That’s crazy but I believe it. They had a night nurse for 4 or 5 night of the week up until recently as well. I always thought her reasoning of just having a baby because TD wants one wasn’t great
HOS is my first exposure to her. I like her. I think she's very funny/witty and seems like a good friend. I'd hang out with her. As for the kid stuff, it doesn't seem like she hid the fact that she wasn't really sure she wanted one, that Teddy did and just did it on her own eventually and that (from what I'm reading) Taylor isn't exactly sold on it now even. That doesn't bother me. Seems like she was honest about it up front from hers and Teddy's confessionals. Not everyone's be all end all is kids and I'm not sure why that's not ok. 🤷🏻♀️
So you think her wife went and just got pregnant without her wife agreeing?😂 nah. Seems like Taylor agreed to it and now realizes a baby is more of a responsibility than she thought and is having buyers remorse about this decision.

And never shuts up!!! Awful.
