    All About the “Ships”
    I can’t thank you enough for one of my new morning podcasts! I appreciate the compassion and “real” advice you offer to those sharing scenarios. Both of you sharing your experiences creates the transparency that is valued! It’s clear you both are committed to helping your listeners. Thank you and I sent an email too!
  • QueeenBreee
    Great Podcast!
    I wrote a review a long time ago but I’m updating it. I love y’all real bad, been apart of the Real Lovers gang since the beginning! I just have to let y’all know that it’s very frustrating that y’all keep the updates from us. I say this with love… y’all gotta do better at keeping us in the loop with the updates!
  • Coach Coco!
    Your words resonate
    When I was single, one of my girlfriends shared your podcast with me and I’ve been addicted ever since! You two have so much sense about you, thank you for sharing your thinking with the world. Today, at 41 yrs old, I am in a loving monogamous relationship with a kind and caring man and we are building our lives as one. One specific episode Rhonda said something I will never forget. To paraphrase, she said, “no one will be out here in the world loving on my man more than me, he will get the most kind and sweetest version of me— I have decided to live by that philosophy and it makes our love feel so special! Thank you both for your measured tone, your listening ability and your powerful storytelling! Keep rocking :)

    The real tea
    Been listening to this show for well over a year. Long story short, yall helped me leave my “man” lol. (Been done with him for a year and I still listen to every episode) Now I know y’all never tell folks to just straight up leave but I felt like that was the only option! Had me realizing my worth and standing on business behind it. I love having both perspectives on this show. Definitely helps have a better understanding. Appreciate y’all so keep it up!
  • Cyreld
    So dope
    I just watched on YouTube the most recent podcast with Krystal… OMG… so so good! So relatable! The guest that yall have on, I love there honesty, openness, and vulnerability! It’s refreshing! It’s refreshing to know that we all still are growing and learning through this thing called love and life!! 🌻🌻🌻
  • Missmiyha
    Listen now!
    I have not missed an episode since I’ve found this podcast! Dre & Rhonda have such a positive vibe… I really enjoy all of the vulnerable conversations about relationships, self love, and overall understanding how you show up in this world.. Keep doing the Lord’s work yall. People like myself really appreciate it. 💕

    Please stop
    I really enjoy this podcast. I listen and like often I’m definitely a real lover. I share this podcast with everyone my husband friends co workers family both single and married. I love the show the concept the inner g. I love how Rhonda “ummm” so on time deeply so intuitively. However… can we STOP the summary before the shows with special guest. Somehow in my opinion it takes away from the episode.
  • Lizzy26!
    It is time to review!
    After listening to a few episodes more than once I knew it was time to review. This show gives great relationship content beyond the typical battle of the sexes. Both host are able to give rational advice and perspectives on “real love scenarios”. I have even teared up on a few episodes with scenarios I have never been in lol you guys have gained a long lasting listener!
  • QueenShe87

    I absolutely enjoy listening to your amazing podcast. I also, have been able to incorporate some of your messages within my Yoga Practice to my students, when I say advice be hitting, knowledge be uplifting (the finger tip two snaps). Both of you are amazing hosts, give absolutely resonating advice always and you’re winning. Kudos! Much success!

    Hi Dre, Hi Rhonda! I began listening to the podcast towards the end of 2023 and have been hooked ever since! I enjoy hearing your different perspectives with each scenario! I’m happy to be apart of the real lovers and I look forward to seeing what 2024 brings 💕 P.S. Tiff I’m coming for your number one spot!
  • bebemixon
    A refreshing take on reality
    I’ve been a fan since the podcast started and I have been hooked! I moved to Baltimore from Michigan two years ago for work and school, and it all just started from following Rhonda and Dre just to be in the know of what goes on here. Best decision I made! This podcast feels like listening to family or having a parked car conversation with friends at night after breaking bread. This is the podcast I wish for everyone to get to experience and see things from a different lens that isn’t rooted in selfishness, false idea of individuality and pain. Praying for new grace and favor in the years to come for you guys and where this podcast is taking y’all!
  • Kellipls
    Thank you for this podcast!
    I decided to check this out from an insta post and I have been hooked! You are a great duo. Keep doing the great work.

    My Favorite Podcast!!!
    I just want to thank you both for saying YES to host this podcast! You both truly have a calling! I look forward to my commute into work every Tuesday because I know you’re both guaranteed to drop some gems as it pertains to navigating relationships. I just love how relatable every scenario is which helps us insert your advice and perspectives into our own love scenario. Continue to be intentional, vulnerable, and purposeful! We truly value your insight and ability to connect with so many of us real lovers!! May your insight breed and increase healthy relationships! The world needs more of this, so THANK YOU my distant family!

  • A.D.D.27
    You guys have a gift
    As I’m listening to the most recent episode about setting boundaries in friendships, I just had to say thank you. Thank you for your advice. This episode couldn’t be more timely I’ve recently found myself feeling this in a friendship and have been trying to find the words without sound harsh or like I don’t care. So many of your episodes have given me clarity on issues both current and in the past. Has helped me realize when I may have been wrong. Just so many gems. Again thank you!
  • AAshley524
    Insightful and helpful!

    Just Keeps On Giving!
    This weeks episode was just TOO good! Rhonda is definitely that first cousin on ya mamas side that also happens to be the first girl, so her experience and stories hit different making you appreciate that wisdom on life 😭❤️ I love the ability to relate as a listener, and the level of vulnerability and honesty you both contribute *deep sigh* I am so grateful for this podcast and the genuine friendship between its hosts! Love y’all fr!!

    Who left the 1 star? Haterrrs
    I found yall from the Dont Call Me White Girl podcast and decided to come thru and listen. Now, im a album, not a single girl, so i had to start from the beginning (currently im at the end of July), so im not even caught up yet, but what a lovely and pleasant conversation the two of you have. Your chemistry is obvious, and the maturity is unmatched. I listen to you guys at work and honestly, i use some of your Dre and Rhonda-isms in my life, and also in providing relationship advice to my family and friends. Thank you for just how you guys show up in the world and the wisdom that you continue to share. And Rhonda, i kno you said chill on the auntie thing a little, but its just about the wisdom and respect. :) There, i left one. Now i wont feel guilty when you guys bring up the reviews. Lol
  • Sade' A
    A gem!!!!!!!
    This podcast is truly incredible. the rawness the honesty the compassion you guys display in every conversation is so refreshing. I’m learning so much about myself listening to this podcast. You guys are truly a blessing and you giving some great advice. Keep up the great work and look forward to a live show one day!!!!!
  • Lil B 22
    Love this Podcast
    Absolutely love this podcast and all the positive and deep conversations that you guys talk about. I can relate to a lot of things y’all talk about and it also helps me when I approach certain situations after already hearing how others have dealt with similar situations. Keep up the great work
  • Tayy.Nich
    Love this podcast!
    This podcast has helped calm my dating anxiety. Lol! I listen to it while I’m at work or when I need extra wisdom. Dre and Rhonda always speak from a very realistic standpoint which is greatly appreciated! Keep doing your thing 😉😉
  • Renee2022#
    Informative Show-My go to!
    Thank you two for sharing your advice on your show. I’m a middle aged divorced woman and appreciate hearing all sides of the love scenarios from a male and female perspective. The show is entertaining, engaging and enlightening! Keep up the awesome work!!!
  • MrsRiddick2018
    New Listener
    Just started listening to the podcast yesterday, and I love the show. Love the input from a man and woman’s perspective.
  • Aayo!!
    Can’t think of a title lol 😂
    I enjoy listening each and every time! I love how y’all are able to take a step back and share unbiased perspectives on each relationship scenario. Both of you have insightful and helpful advice for people who are looking for some guidance. Everyone can use some guidance every now and then and why not by listening to a good podcast!! Can’t wait for the next episode! Have a blessed one!!!
  • BeeNich
    The reason I redownloaded the Podcast app
    Now who would’ve thought I’d be 34 & listening to a podcast while I drive 😅This Podcast has been eye opening, cathartic, & a perfect weekly regimen to help heighten my self-awareness. I was sent a clip from a friend on IG & I immediately hit follow. It’s rare that I come across sound wisdom with all of the clutter, gossip, & banter on Al Gore’s internet, but finding this Podcast couldn’t have come at a better time! Thank you for the transparency, perspectives, openness, & conviction lol! I’ve already started applying the advice & takeaways that have yielded a better relationship. LOVE y’all forREAL! #RealLover

    Necessary & Intentional
    Thank you, thank you, thank you !!! This space is so necessary and intentional 🙏🏽 I can’t tell you both how much this podcast has impacted my life in such a positive way. I feel like when I’m tempted to do something that isn’t going to serve me , I hear your voices in my head 🤣The point of views and life experiences that you both share are extremely needed in a time like this . I’m a single parent and have been through some things and besides my faith in God, this podcast has given me an additional sense of hope for Love and that it still exists . I’ve added to my prayer that not only my future husband is a man of God but also listens to this podcast and if not, he’s definitely going to !! Praying you guys are able to do this for a long time ❣️
  • Peaspot
    Great Podcast
    They always have different perspectives on a scenarios that I wouldn’t have thought about. I love the advice that is given and I can pertain to my life. Thank y’all for having a great podcast! 🫶🏽
  • SiieJones
    Much Needed Podcast
    I’m so glad I came across this podcast! I listen to you all during my 12hr shifts and I really appreciate the advice that’s given in this show. You can tell it’s REAL and ya’ll aren’t just talking for views/listens and that’s so rare now days and it’s greatly appreciated! I pray this podcast is around for a very LONG time! Keep up the great job ! —Siie Jones (“Cee”)
  • ExclusiveBK
    OUTSTANDING Episode.
    I am already a huge Amanda Seales fan from back in the day when I discovered her as an MTV VJ, and I also follow her podcast small doses. So when I started following you two recently and then saw she was going to be a guest I was like awesome sauce💯. I dig her as a fellow Caribbean and New Yorker. And as a divorced woman in her 40s, I really am enjoying your content and especially the male and female aspect of the opinions. Oh yeah, I do like the new game at the beginning too.

  • NilSolangeSumbe
    AMAZING AND REAL
    I absolutely love y’all’s podcast. I do have my own scenario but it seems like I’m going through a lot of the things that people write about. I listen to y’all on Apple podcast and every time I listen to an episode I have this urge to call y’all and pitch it and then I remember it’s not a radio station lol. But thank y’all so for the realness, the love and rawness when it comes to relationships and human interactions. Love you guys and keep it up.
  • Alicia Mo Mo
    Wise beyond their years
    I’m older than both hosts. Got married very young and divorced at the age of 40. Getting back out on the dating scene, I have learned how little I knew about myself the first go round. I’m in a relationship and happy, but love hearing their advice on dating, conflict resolution, and putting your partner first. They are truly wise beyond their years, and I value their thoughts.
  • Marie_F88
    Thank you
    I recently went through a break up and this podcast has truly been a saving grace for me! While my healing journey will be a long one, this podcast has been a source of comfort when I’ve needed it the most. Thank you!!
  • Track_Star32
    Great Podcast
    I heard about this podcast around the 2nd week of January and I have since been hooked. I began listening to it while driving long distances, but then I slowly shifted to listening to it during my 5am workouts. This podcast is that good that I started from the very beginning and I’m now caught up with the episodes. The chemistry between you too reminds me of what my guy best-friend and I have and I’m here for it. Additionally, you both are so well spoken. Thank you and y’all keep being great!!!
  • Nai1231
    Real
    I’ve listened to about 3 episodes so far, but from the first one I was hooked. I love the concept, a real conversation between two level-headed adults. The topics are great also and I’ve related to quite a few so far.

    Real Gems Each podcast
    Listening to this podcast has been a relationship saver. I immediately had to share it with my partner.We’ve been having communication skills.& you guys more accurately hit the points We were both trying to make to each other. And mistakes we were making communicatively. I learned how to be more “ego fluent” and speak to him in ways that didn’t bruise him. We sat down and used talking points from the “..communicating fluently..” episode to better communicate ! So thank you for all you all have done here ! Can’t wait to hear more !
  • Adheart79

    So many gems and “Ah-Ha” moments listening to you two. I first came across a clip on IG which led me to this podcast. Love your energy! Always looking forward to hearing your takes every week. I find myself sitting and thinking aloud about each scenario with you two as if I’m sitting amongst friends 😂 Keep up the great work. God bless 🙏🏾
