Even the Rich

by Wondery
10,451

Our lives can be crazy, but you can take a break from it all with Wondery’s new series, Even the Rich, where co-hosts Brooke Siffrinn and Aricia Skidmore-Williams pull back the curtain and chat about someone else’s craziness for a change. They tell stories about some of the greatest family dynasties in history, from the Murdochs to the Royals to the Carters (Jay-Z and Beyoncé, that is). Because as Queen Elizabeth once said, “A good gossip is a wonderful tonic.”

    Too much banter
    I love Even the Rich and Even the Royals. A few months ago my rating would be five star. Lately (noticed in June Royals podcasts) there has been a HUGE increase in banter and joking and giggling comments between Brooke and Aricia, which cuts into the content. Especially annoying in the Henry VIII wives episodes. Ugh. The hosts’ heavy handed back-and-forth is so annoying, I’m just about ready to stop tuning in. Please don’t put in all this filler. Your podcasts are SO good without it.
  • Your fan 🙃
    Love
    This is just such an amazing podcast. I listen to you when I need to relax or feel happy. It feels like talking with friends, and also I get to learn. I love your personalities and how you make it your own, laugh, share opinions, and make it interesting. Keep it up!

    Stop saying “like” every other sentence
    Stop saying “like” every other sentence. It’s like so annoying. Brian, San Francisco

    Even the Royals
    I love this podcast and all the little stories and opinions and the comparisons to current cultural norms. I am not offended by curses much and I find that they usually fit into the context and storytelling. If it functions to further the understanding of the characters I’m interested. And thank you for sharing your own experiences and with humor!
  • Dr. Nomecat
    Bowen and Chappel
    I interpreted the segment with Bowen as supportive of Chappel’s right to not participate in the DNC cult wherein excercise of democratic power to affect policy is deemed dangerous. (I support Harris, but I am over pundits acting like if we criticize the admin on Gaza or anything else we are traitors to the cause of saving democracy.) Leave them both alone, but I think her fans are misinterpreting the segment.

    JK Rowling ep!
    I know y'all may have a lot of podcast idea's, but I hope I may add one to the list. I know sometimes you might make Harry Potter references, and I would really like to hear an episode ABOUT the author. I think JK Rowling would be an amazing subject matter for one of your podcasts. I'd love to hear the awesome and inspiring history of JK, especially narrated by you guys. Thanks again for an entertainmenting podcast that I can't listening to!

    Love!
    I love your podcast and all of the crazy stories of people that are rich and royal!!! I would love if you just didn’t have so many bad words in the podcast.

    Hey Y’all
    I love your podcast and you guys are just really relaxing to listen to. It’s like having my girlfriends over while I do chores and learn things 🥰 I’m a little concerned that you’re advertising the push/boost financial advice. The concept seems like a predatory practice. The option to “boost” your friends rating to let them borrow more money is a situation that rarely comes up spontaneously, unless you’re at a bar/strip club. And a good friend wouldn’t put their bestie in a bad financial situation. I hope this was helpful feedback, looking forward to listening to y’all in the future, Dani ❤️

    I cried listening to these episodes. Thank you for doing her story justice. 💜

    How many PR representatives pay to push a story line?
    This Angelina Jolie narrative is hilarious. I think you two are good storytellers. Although I was around when AJ was coming up and watched from the sidelines and you got it wrong. Winona’s father gave her the book while WR was suffering from depression after a break up. WR was a producer. Angelina did not reach out to WR about the book. You failed to mention Angelina’s heroin use and I don’t know why you’d not mention her longtime female relationships.. that shouldn’t be anything to be ashamed to share....I guess it is more of a “bless Angelina’s innocent heart” thing . I should’ve given 5 starts for all the laughs this storyline gave me. Just listened to Will Smith story… Yep, definitely have PR influence when telling these stories. We all know Will Smith wants to get back into the Academy and this story seems like a sympathetic piece.

    Love This Podcast!
    Very well done! I appreciate that the this podcast scans many years with such a great variety of people!
  • pheonixrss
    Meh
    Interesting stories but way too scripted and gimmicky
  • kelbel90505!
    Most entertaining and informational!
    I LOVE the show,”Even the Rich!” Why you say…a couple reasons. First, these ladies are very witty. I’ve tried to listen to other lady shows, but I can’t because they go on and on and never get to the point . These ladies lay on the wit, but they disperse it throw out their show. I have many laugh aloud my moments. They make the shows so much more interesting. Second, they use books to tell the stories, rephrase the stories, and recommend where they get their info. There are so many good focus topics. This is a really entertaining show. I highly recommend it! Thanks ladies!

    A new fave
    This is a new favorite podcast. I’m learning about people I might not have cared about or just heard rumors - I’m seeing people as people with backstories. I like the hosts. They are friends who have inside jokes and banter, but I personally feel it’s not too much. Also, I like the sound effects. Keep doing what you’re doing. :)
  • Baby B's mom
    Good
    To much bad language
  • The hippie redneck
    Used to love it but….
    This podcast is becoming increasingly insulting towards a large portion of their listener base: conservatives. I am a rather moderate conservative, but boy, I am getting tired of Aricia’s snippy remarks. This has always been my favorite podcast but it’s becoming tough to ignore. We aren’t here for political insults.
  • RTJ224
    Great Podcasts!
    I just discovered both the Rich and the Royals pods and am loving both! Learning some things I never knew and love listening to you both! Thank you! ❤️
  • buntzz 737277
    Yes yes yes
    One of the best pods out there. They make people I don’t really care about much more interesting.
  • AvaITNurse
    No idea I needed this so much
    I’ve been missing out for four years! I really didn’t think I cared about these stories but now that I’ve started listening, I can’t get enough! Who knew I needed to know all this info about people I’ll never meet. It’s mostly the way you two portray the info and the way you make each other laugh. You can definitely feel the friendship and sense of humor! #bingingitall
  • hey sunshine
    Love the pod except for one thing…
    Please get rid of the silly sound effects! The gunshots, the bed bouncing, it’s really unnecessary and distracting.
  • #Vgirlslays
    #THE BEST PODCAST#
    I. LOVE. YOU. GUYS😍😍😍😍😍
  • leroyruss
    Love it!
    I love this show! Even the Rich and Even the Royals have kept me alert and more productive at work. I love the stories and the great connection the hosts have with each other! Plus, I’m catching up on different things.
  • hollyl00ya
    Good job, ladies
    Easy listen. The gals have good banter and they are easy on the ears. I listen to dozens of podcasts and this is among my favorites.
  • Bschora
    Time warp.
    Elton John. Too much bouncing around on the timeline. Ugh. Lucille Ball, Season 38. Darrin Strauss episode. I can’t believe some of his perspectives! He talks about The Untouchables as if its fame was based on Kevin Coster’s version. Then mentions how he can’t understand how the LB show, being in black & white and “totally un-relatable” to him, ever made an impact on his life. I mean, these comments are completely foreign to me, having grown up with both of those shows in real-time… way before the invention of color TV. None of this is a negative criticism, but my initial reaction was, “Whoa…” this guy is a kid.

    Please Stop
    I’m here for royals. Not Taylor Swift’s weak lyrics. It took me three tries to get through the most recent because of this.
  • bob the asparagus
    Love this show
    I love listening to this show. I have binged past seasons because it’s so good
  • IyaToyin
    Content awesome; cattiness not so much
    Love the show and the subject matters. But please lose the cattiness. Some of the content is too serious for the jokes.
  • BeeMother
    Fun and Informative!!
    Love listening while walking. Makes you laugh and hear crazy inside info about famous people you never knew about. I also love that they show a human side to the people featured.
  • Even The Rich fan
    AMAZING
    I love these stories and how y’all tell them
  • Kerri Bassett
    Great podcast!
    I always love listening to you girls together. I laugh with you all the time… Great show, great topics, and I love the way y’all present it!

    Prime Podcast
    This is one of those podcasts where you don't have to rewind to understand what they're saying, and that is one of the biggest compliments I can give a podcast. They're writing, speaking, and research are all very clear. The sound mixing and episode production is spot on. I will be following these hosts and this team to whatever show they do next.
  • H Dallas
    Fantastic.
    This show is fantastic. I have listened to them all and love the presenters style. An entertaining mix of storytelling and sass.
  • DPS3283
    Love it!
    Feels like I'm chatting with my girlfriends! Love all the culture references!
  • Presley's mama
    So good. These are my people.
    You ladies are kind, funny, whip smart and well researched. I adore your little add ons for private conversations, I love the reenactments, the accents, the singing, the cursing. I’m here for all of it. I love your friendship and banter. You are just. Great.
  • dumbusernameforapp21
    Had to stop listening.
    The cackling & laughing between them, errors in factual information & topics got to be too much. I DM’d their instagram to bring awareness of the cackling . Their response: move along. we’re friends who laugh with one another. Wow..just wow.
  • Ernurseangel
    So fun!
    I love this podcast and want to hang with the hosts. Ladies, hit me up we would have a freaking blast!
  • Jk185021
    Please stop saying NEKKID
    Finally had to stop listening. The hero worship of the celebrities is gag-worthy. And please, please, please, for the love of God, stop saying NEKKID. It’s not a word, and it makes you sound unintelligent.

    Used to be my fav but...
    2/22/2024 - What is bugging me is that Wondery has moved to a sneaky model across nearly all of their podcasts. Releasing several episodes of a series and putting the final episode behind a pay wall. I very much understand having special episodes behind a pay wall or even most of your episodes behind a paywall. But to release each episode for free and when the final comes out and it's behind a paywall is like loaning a book to a friend and purposefully tearing out the last chapter without telling them in advance that you want them to pay for it. It's sneaky, kinda bait and switch. They have also doubled the number of ads per episode, which to me is no big deal. But the other thing, is a big deal for me. I'm still listening to Wondery podcasts but not sure for how much longer as I don't really trust them anymore to not tear out that last page. If I don't trust them to treat me fairly with the free content then I'm certainly not going to pay for it and have them do it again in the future when they want more money
  • Clasjen
    Love it!
    I love the show . I’m completely obsessed and listening to them on my commute everyday . I love their banter . I dislike all the ads
  • sickofincompetence
    Lazy hosts. And boring subjects
    Lots of judgement and inaccuracies from these two. Cringy banter, they insert political opinions and 50% ads. I unsubscribed.
  • Ajaclayplayers4life
    Love this show!!
    I love listening when I’m driving and when I’m working out. I usually only listen to true crime but sometimes that gets depressing. These ladies are so funny and I love all the inside info.
  • Beaughetto
    My two besties
    I love listening to them. Down to earth is what’s got me listening every chance I get.
  • Mushi67
    Well-told and charming
    These host have great chemistry and they’re funny and charming. The stories (I’ve listened to two so far) are interesting on their own, but listening to these two hosts tell them is like listening to your friends joke around on at a Friday night sleepover (remember those days? *sigh*). They, and this podcast are a lot of fun!
  • lblackard
    Another Wondry hit
    I’m so glad I found this podcast, after hearing multiple recommendations for it I’m happy I started listening! Very entertaining
  • calgirl26
    Love you both!
    Hilarious! But my favorite is royals coverage. Please have a separate podcast and cover only royals everywhere!
  • Bijtop
    They get straight to it!
    Things I like: they get straight to the point. So many podcasts have several minutes of chit chat before getting to the topic and it kinda drives me crazy. The sounds effects are fun and enhance the story. The funny one liners from the one not telling the story for this episode are great. Things that could be better: some vocal variety. It seems like maybe they are reading directly from a sheet of paper making it kinda monotone.
  • AshleyNicolette
    Did Wattpad write this?
    I have no idea how this can have good ratings because it sounds like they’re reading 2010 Wattpad fan fics.
