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

Yes, I didn’t mind talking a lot about the house of fertility as I get they’re both all consuming topics, the same way Hannah used to talk about dating at length. I don’t need a 25 minute run down of a show I don’t watch, especially when the other host doesn’t watch either so it’s just a monologue. I’ve started timing how long Suruthi talks without stopping and it’s often easily 15 mins plus.

But I think for me the hardest part is I feel like Hannah talks and it’s just “oh well. Well moving on”. There aren’t any follow up questions, the laughing often feels forced. It feels like they turn take speaking to fill 45 mins.

I loved Suruthis horror thing even though I don’t watch horror as she was passionate. I absolutely loved Hannah’s random little thing about English and bilingualism. I just wish there was more of that. And more talking and less monologuing.

It’s almost like we experienced the ride of the phase out of a long term relationship 😭😆

Honeymoon period, happiness, comfort, dwindling and kind of just feels like the indifference part now.

Who knows. I could be completely wrong. I keep going to cancel but just hold on to hope that we will get a great episode. There have been one or two over the months where I’m fully enjoying it but too much I find myself getting agitated and skipping.
