    Hot dummies on islands
    5 stars on behalf of my husband who watches love island and loves the pod with Kirsten and Scally. Rating subject to change if Scally doesn’t 👏🏼 bring 👏🏼 back 👏🏼 the 👏🏼 duckies.
  • quitemichael
    Pregaming on air?
    Is it just me or is the recent trend of inviting old school players an excuse for Rob to pregame before going on Survivor 50? If so I LOVE IT. Rob would kill it in 50, I hope he’s on that season!!
  • KitKat flygurl
    Love it all
    Have to listen after each episode. If I can’t it just feels incomplete. Thanks for the last 15 years of always being there for me.
  • Stonehenge3
    The Pooya and Liana Lounge
    Love, love, love this pod! Love the way Pooya and Liana play off of each other- I literally am smiling or laughing the whole way through 😀 They really are the best 🫶🏻 Oh, and just a quick comment/question about ep 2… Doesn’t everyone write their grocery list by envisioning the store and putting items in the order that you come across them as you walk through?
  • Dwalt Reviews
    Rob please work on the “uh…..uh….” Issue
    Love the podcast but the consistent “uh……uh….uhhhhhhh” practically renders the podcast unlistenable. Also don’t need to ask every cohost how they are twice in a row every episode.
  • jmueller54
    🙏
    Please cover special forces the tv show on fox.
  • Jess Jess 310
    Aysha and Jason are the best!
    Honestly, I look forward to Wednesday mornings when I can listen to their hilarious takes on MAFS and the Ultimatum! I feel like I’m listening to my old friends give their insights (with playful satire) on these different shows. Keep up the great content y’all!
  • Amy DW
    DWTS Fun Podcast!
    The addition of the Dancing with the Stars recaps have been fun. I found you week 2 when you had Izzy on. It’s gotten me to watch the show live to join in on the live recap. Your Disney night recap is especially fun. Great vibes!
  • Srdesi
    Love is blind
    A little less off topic commentary and a lot less giggling would be greatly appreciated, it’s a hard listen with all the giggles.
  • KathieA2014
    Dancing with the Stars
    This podcast is so much fun! The panel really knows the show and has a lot of interesting insights and observations. Can't wait for the next one!
  • FreddieBT
    DWTS
    Hope to hear this trio every week!!

    More recaps of the anonymous please!

    Melissa is unlistenable
    If she has some type of neurological disorder, then I apologize for this review, but she is unlistenable. She says “like” constantly. I just listened to a sentence where she said it five times. Five times in one sentence she said the word like. Again if she has some type of disorder then just delete this review. But if she doesn’t, what is wrong with her?

    Thumbs Up
    I am a 72 year old who back in the days I said I would never pay to watch tv. Well how times change. Now I have them all Hulu, Netflix, Paramount, Peacock, Prime. What can I say. Well one day my teenage daughter said Mom you need to watch this show. It was Big Brother. I loved Marcellus, Danielle, Jason. Well long story short, I became a reality show junkie. Then one day I happened across RHAP. I had no clue what a podcast was. I clicked on it and now I’m hooked. There is not I day I don’t listen to it. I love how they cover all shows. The podcasters are great. Don’t tell Leanna but I love Pooya. Brice is so funny. Taran is fantastic. Rob, thank you for starting up this podcast and bringing in new podcasters all the time. This is the Greatest.
  • Jen Gonzales
    Five stars!
    Taran’s coverage of Big Brother is what brought me into the sphere of RHAP. Season in and season out, RHAP is insightful and fun to listen to. I’m looking forward to Sock Pooya making some appearances this season!
  • CaitlinAsh227
    Renew Big Deck Energy!
    I am here to say we need weekly or biweekly coverage of below deck! Sasha and Chappell are great captains and we NEED to hear their thoughts on a regular basis. Renew Big Deck Energy for full seasons!
  • RealityPlease
    Knee fell off
    The games on survivor b and b make me giggle every single week. A big thank you to Mike and Liana for their incredible analysis/commentary and endless silliness!
  • Julianna.Sheeran
    Below Deck
    Love listening to the Below Deck podcast it’s so fun and they are so entertaining.
  • Reddog369
    Fun Bravo recap!!
    Love the Bravo recaps, it’s like dishing with my friends!! We need more!!!
  • Daffodils35
    Deep Dive flew by
    Great BB25 Cory Wurtenberger Deep Dive! He should be added to the podcast team! BB Reindeer Games?!?
  • Debsy Girl
    Highly recommend this Below Deck podcast
    I love having this podcast to go too. I’m the only one I know who is watching this show so it’s great to feel like I am watching with friends when I listen to them talk and gossip about the episode.
  • Dixie517
    MAFS
    Aysha and Jason are great co-hosts. This is my favorite RHAP Up right now and favorite Podcast of the week. Whether the experts make the couples for love or drama, Jason and Aysha bring the entertainment!
  • amber_sawyer
    So much dead air…
    I’m a daily podcast listener, often while I drive, cook, or do laundry, but new to this one. I really like the content and recaps but I’m struggling with all the dead air. There are multiple times an episode where the audio cuts out for 6-7+ seconds and I find myself checking my phone to make sure it’s still playing. I don’t know if the hosts are silently laughing or what but it’s annoying and I don’t want to have to stop what I’m doing multiple times to check it or skip the silence. I checked and there are already some reviews that mention this, so hopefully it’s corrected soon. If not, I don’t see myself sticking around very long

    The Big D
    I can’t tell you ladies enough how grateful I (Casey) am for your discussion about The Big D. Specifically to my situation with Brooks. It truly means so much and that you ladies could see right through the low blows, and “punishments” I was subjected to. This was such a challenging episode and it was awful for me to relive. So thank you for seeing me and my truth ❤️
  • LearnTheCrypt
    I’ll be back BABY!
    This show is so much fun and makes me laugh out loud thru my ear buds at the office!
  • KatieLad
    Such a fun recap!
    Love these hosts! Listening to them recap this silly show is always a joy!
  • Kiki wolfe
    MAFS
    This is the best podcast EVER! It gets me through my work days and I am waiting for the day where both of you can be featured on MAFS Afterparty.
  • violetowl29
    The rhap ups never miss!!
    RHAP’s team of podcaster is incredible and all of the rhap ups are fantastic, solely due to the dedication and passion each podcaster brings to their show!
  • Aliamjaded
    Long time listener
    I got into The Challenge when the BB players started getting on the show, and I’ve been following The Challenge RHAP-UP since then! I love the podcast and you guys; I’ve never left a review ever, but upon Ali’s impassioned plea, I ended up writing a review! Keep up the great work! Ali Amjad, Lahore, Pakistan ✌🏼🇵🇰
  • nbrennn
    Long time listener
    This has been my go-to Challenge podcast for years! It’s exciting to see so many new ones popping up, but this will always be my first and favorite stop.
  • Alli Giancola
    Love the Boras sisters & Lego Masters Coverage
    Lego Masters isn’t the easiest competition reality format to recap, but Liana and her sister do a great job. Honestly they are the reason I watch. Please keep up the coverage!
  • jixxy 570
    Love is Blind Recaps
    I love the recaps more than the actual show. Aysha and Mary have the best commentary. Always on point and hilarious!
  • Nicloa64
    Perfect Match!
    I cannot be the only person who got sucked into MAFS when it on Netflix. Now I have stumbled upon the perfect podcast to accompany my guilty pleasure. Aysha and Jason are great together. Jason’s voice is silky smooth and the banter they share is just perfect. I just want to go to the Cidery with Aysha and chill. Now I have to go back and rewatch the episodes and listen to the pod. I hope they revisit some of the older train wrecks that are the earlier seasons of MAFS. I may have watched every episode over the last 3 months…. Send help and Cider definitely Cider!
  • LemonDifficult:
    Edit out DEAD AIR
    PLEASE find better hosts for Bachelor in Paradise. They speak in monotone and have ZERO charisma. It doesn’t seem like they know much about the show or even care. It’s like a moody teenager is giving a report on a book they didn’t read.
  • listener 4good
    Bloom is soooo gooood!
    He is a gem!
  • GatorBob72
    Love the show
    Came for the recap, stay for the random tangent conversations!!
  • prettybaby1971
    LOVE THE MESS!!!
    Kirsten & Sasha are THE BEST!!🔥🔥🔥 I want my UMASS sweatshirt!!
  • cita417
    Always Good for a Great Podcast.
    I love the RHAP podcasts so much. I am a senior citizen, but a cool one. All the coverage of Big Brother/Survivor are my favorites. Rob knows how to attract very good podcasters to assist him, Taran, Pooya, Brice and so many more. They are like family to me.💙
  • bucknerwh
    I’m a FAN of these podcasts! So many to love
    I usually listen via the RHAP app but I want to support the crew here in Apple podcasts. I have been listening to RHAP since 2016 and a patron soon after. The explosion of different types of podcasts lately has been awesome. I listen to as many as I can. I can’t recommend highly enough trying some of them to see what you like!
  • it's me I am back
    Perfect Match = Perfect Pod!
    Half the reason I still watch MAFS is because of this Pod! So hilarious, good takes, and I feel like Jason and Ayshia always notice things that I overlooked when watching. I look forward to listening to the recap every week! Ps also love the new theme song
  • Steve from the heart
    MAFS: A Perfect Match
    I have watched many seasons of MAFS, and Aysha and Jason have become my new favorite part of watching the show. Your recaps are on point, and are so hilarious. Lifetime should thank you for helping retain this viewer. Thank you for keeping me giggling and entertained!
  • LBM3000
    Mess Magnets serves the tea HOT
    Kirsten and Sasha are so fun to listen to! I just discovered Mess Magnets a few weeks ago and I am hooked! Listening to the pod feels like gabbing with friends about pop culture gossip in the best way. Please keep the episodes coming!
  • e_crann
    Hot Mess Express!
    I look forward to the Hot Mess Express/90 Day Fiancé RHAPup every week. The podcast is far superior to the show. While I’m debating watching the new season of HEA because I loathe Angela and Ed (and I wish TLC would stop promoting abusers), I will faithfully listen to the RHAP up because it’s so entertaining. Pooya is one of my fave podcasters ever. I do enjoy all of his guests and I don’t want to hurt any feelings - the weeks with Chapell are my favorite. I would not be sad if he was a permanent cohost.
  • DeeDee146
    Obsessed!
    I’ve turned into a reality TV obsessed human…in the best way! I love watching the latest shows so that I can listen to my favorite podcasts hosts recap them. Thank you!
  • katey.k
    Podfriends
    Podfriends is killing it!! Matt’s genuine connection with others and care for his friends really comes through on the pod. I get so excited to see every time a new episode is out!
  • SmarmyPlankton
    just avoid akiva
    never heard a host hate his audience more. if i thought it was a game. but no. he really hates us.often says how much money he has and how we the audience are idiots.
  • emmjaydub
    Loving Pod Friends!
    Matt has been doing a great job with Pod Friends and the latest episode with Grace was one of the most fun/genuine/real podcasts I’ve listened to in a while. 10/10. Pod Friends and The Taran Show prove that RHAP’s interview podcasts are just as good as their bread and butter reality TV recaps!
  • kimmie.g
    Great pair !
    I know I’m at the end of the season but want you guys to know how much I enjoy your conversations every week. If I miss the show, I can listen to your podcast and get the low down on them all. Love love listening to you two. Thanks for always making me chuckle…after 20 episodes we need a good laugh don’t we?! Thanks for what you do 🥰☺️
