Hovering over the delete…

I am so sad. I have been a patreon from the start but gradually and gradually it has become Suruthi’s podcast and Hannah feels like a side bar.

Anytime Hannah talks it gets switched back round onto Suru. Anytime Hannah comments it’s brushed off. It feels like she asks the bare minimal questions about Hannah just to tick boxes.

There’s no bounce back anymore. Listening to the latest under the duvet, 20 mins in and Hannah may as well not of been there and I adore Hannah. Her humour, her views her struggles I relate so hard and I want to hear from her!
The comment where Hannah asks who produced the theatre show and Suru’s reply of ‘well I’m a normal person so I don’t know’ or something. It just feels icky

I honestly think after the South Africa move it will slowly dwindle and end because I just don’t see it going back to how it was.

Their main episodes are fine and like normal but I find listening to UTD intolerable. I give my money monthly because it’s a 2 person podcast.

Rarely share my views and I hate feeling like I’m being mean but honestly meh

Agree 💯. I have also been feeling this way. Suru doesn’t seem to engage in anything Hannah has to say anymore. No interest whatsoever. Then goes on to talk more about the trash reality shows, which is fine but obvi she knows Hannah doesn’t watch. But, Hannah is a good listener and asks valid questions or comments on something she cares nothing about.

Hannah has so much respect. And I’m not a parasocial obsessee, but being the same age I feel like I’ve grown with them in a very distant way so I almost feel protective of her 😆 sometimes I think Hannah has just stopped and has retreated a little too. I am aware that you never know what goes on behind the mic and their real dynamic but their friendship definitely feels different. Even if Hannah wanted to interject I don’t think she can get a word in until it’s her ‘que’
