I'm really enjoying the real talk surrounding Lala's breakup. I find it more interesting than most of the guests (except Jesse Metcalf, as he is my long-time Hollywood crush. Loved that interview, nice job! Also, the interview with Sofia with an F was quite juicy, as it addressed social media drama. More of that is always interesting!). Jess is so sweet, and it's great that Lala has her right now during this time. My one critique, however, is that Jess' over-enthusiasm to nearly every statement Lala makes comes off a bit cringey, to be honest. The gasping, the "aww!!"s, "really???"s and repeated "Ocean is SO lucky to have you!!" is a bit much when it's constant throughout each episode, and in response to pretty typical statements, across multiple episodes now. A course or coaching on interview skills may prove beneficial for both, and make for a more authentic conversation that doesn't seem forced, fake, or overdone. I do enjoy listening and love Lala's new mission to empower women. Great advice to encourage financial independence. I couldn't agree more. Nice job, Lala and Jess, I will keep tuning in!
