Amazing

I love this podcast! Sammy does an amazing job on not talking over her guests, and she is great at keeping the conversation going. I’d love to see new episodes!

Phenomenal

I love this podcast! It’s so interesting to listen to, and she has so much wisdom, and is very self aware, which is really nice to see. She also covers topics like anxiety, which is a breath of fresh air to hear talked about. Would recommend!

OMG

I just found this podcast and I found the episode with Neil DeGrasse Tyson. He said there aren’t many astrophysicists. That’s my dream job. You don’t hear many girls saying that. I got lots of books this Christmas. Two of them are by Neil DeGrasse Tyson. Great podcast.

Amazing & Insightful

I love listening to Sammy Jaye- she has been my new go to for my endless walks during quarantine. While I may not always know who her artists are I am always intrigued by the conversation and the “raw and real” feel. Keep the podcasts coming. You are a refreshing honest light in a somewhat “fake” world we live in with all the social media. Love Sammy Jaye!!!

Just what I needed to hear today

With all the craziness happening in the world, it was really refreshing to try out a new podcast today and feel a little better about humanity. Sammy Jaye’s optimism and enthusiasm as she interviews interesting people in the arts is infectious. She is so “herself” and so disarming, that her interview subjects actually open up, get vulnerable, and share new sides of themselves. There is so much strength in being vulnerable, and hearing about these artists and their unique journeys provided some much needed entertainment, comfort and inspiration.

A fresh take on the world

I'm probably not Sammy's typical audience as I'm in my 30s, but I like to keep tabs on what other generations are really like and there's no better way than consuming media produced by them. Sammy Jaye truly deserves her prodigy podcaster status. Insightful, poignant and likeable, I have a feeling this is just the beginning for her. The show is Gen Z to the core, but she makes me confident that's a good, perhaps even great, thing.

Future Superstar

Without a doubt the next superstar in celebrity interviewing. Insane ability to get normally guarded individuals to really open up and dig into important questions. Very excited for future episodes.

The REAL DEAL

"The only people who actually tell the truth are drunks and kids." You can hear the authenticity in her voice! While most podcasts display a facade that's been filtered and stained by big corporations, this 17-year-old has found a way to create a real voice on one of the biggest stages, while also getting some of the most notable celebrities to be their most vulnerable. This has been my most anticipated podcast of the year and I cannot wait for the world to see that Sammy Jaye is the REAL DEAL!!!
