Every single ep of this podcast is gold! If you’re a pop culture/celebrity gossip fan this is the best of the best. Troy and Kelli are hilarious but also thoughtful and introspective. I look forward to it every week!

one of my all time fave podcasts! the hosts are both incredible, funny, passionate, and make my day. i love troy’s giggle and kelli’s accent (in a good way!). also of course love the thoroughly researched content which is not only blinds but covers current hot topics, documentaries, and more. sometimes even bravo! troy and kelli are experts at what they do. thanks and we love you very much byeee

Been here since episode 1 and I’ll be here till the wheels fall off. I know most of the celebrities they talk about, but even when I don’t, Troy and Kelli make me care about stories about people I know nothing about. That is pure talent. This pod is funny, witty, and pure entertainment. Happy to be a part of the rotted community!

Long time listener. The pop culture kikis are my absolute faaaave. I love listening to Troy and Kelli each week.

I genuinely love all of Kelli and Troy’s takes and discussions about the widest range of pop culture. I never get bored and look forward to each episode

Live for the Kiki’s, their opinions and outlooks are interesting and they have me cackling every episode.

The fact that bots have bombarded their reviews shows that these two know what they’re talking about. Troy and Kelli joyfully peeking behind the slick curtain of Hollywood and uncovering the ewwwws and yucks of celebrities is just pure fun. It’s all alleged, but then why is J Aldean and anti Barbie people (we see you Kendoms) paying bots to swarm Beyond the Blinds Podcast? Hmmm 🧐 Follow the money and these two for intelligent banter about culture and what really goes on behind the glassy eyes of our favorite stars. Troy’s jovial laugh alone is worth a follow! Kelli’s love for scripted early aughts reality is unmatched. I’m obsessed with this podcast so much that I’ve begun to teach my 14 month old son about blind gossip. It’s never too early to hear alleged stories of stars! ***apparently I wrote the above review while 14 months postpartum. My son is 3 now and we are still obsessed with Beyond the Blinds! My son will probably be my plus one for when Troy and Kelli visit for their live show.

For the love of God, put transitions in your ads. Something to let us know when ad is starting…it is so annoying when you are mid sentence and then all of a sudden it’s an advertisement.

My favorite podcast. The only podcast I find worthy of paying for. Love troy and Kelli, love them branching out and trying new things.

I love this pod so much. I’m a fiend. Can’t get enough. My partner and I made up a little dance to the theme song.

I was introduced to the world of blind items by Kelly and Troy and now I can’t get enough. Not particularly a huge fan of the Kiki episodes each week as I already follow pop culture pretty closely and know what’s going on. Really craving more blind item episodes. I understand a large bulk of celebs have already been covered but maybe you guys could go back and start giving some blind item updates on older episodes? Wish you’d do a Britney episode!

Loving these new Bravo corner eps! Hearing Kelly and Troy discuss whether they'd be a deckhand or stew and what type of charter they'd want was so fun to listen to. It feels like they're my actual friends and I'm cracking up with them. The pod also has a really good vibe bc you can tell they're actual friends (similar to Ben and Ronnie from Watch What Crappens).

love the pop culture kiki every week!! i’m so happy i get two episodes on wednesdays now!

What would I do with my Troy and Kelli. Obsessed doesn’t describe how ravenous I am for this podcast. Please never stop! We need you guys.

Every time that Troy says “you are swaddled” I feel the depression leaving my body.

This is my favorite show! Kelli and Troy are so funny and I truly love how real they are. Been a listener since the beginning💜💜

People don’t need to agree with you on everything, Troy. Making it seem like MW fans are idiots is very rude. If the roles were reversed you’d be losing your ish. Racism goes both ways and Troy, you need help.

For the most part, I really enjoy this podcast. BUT! Completely disagree with Troy’s opinion regarding Chappell. People don’t have a problem with her not having kids or being a pop star, people have issues with her wishy washy stances. Chappell said that she’s not a spokeswoman for politics but she sure had an opinion with the Biden administration and Kamala Harris (which she purposefully mispronounced her name a couple of times 🧐). She is mysteriously silent on the Trump administration which is affecting the LGBTQ community that she’s profiting from. I believe Chappell Roan doesn’t want to offend her republican family members which she has stated that she’s still close to.

Content so good I might be obligated to subscribe to the patreon 🫡

Great podcast usually but Troy’s way of speaking down on people who don’t agree with him is roughhhh! It’s not always but when he feels strongly about something, he can’t engage in convo that sees both sides and isn’t condescending. I find Kelli to be lovely and much better at discussion even when she disagrees. Overall I love the podcast topics but wish they’d (mostly Troy) take constructive criticism more professionally

This was once such a fun listen, but Troy can't help himself, he spews out hateful comments about anyone that doesn't agree with him politically .. and brings up how much he hates white men in almost every episode, it's exhausting.. too many ads, too many f- word .. no thanks

Kelly’s, Cate impression had me on the floor!

Please don't tell Troy and Kelli but I actually don't even care about anything celebrity related. I just really feel connected to these two as a millennial media consumer which is a phrase I've never before used to describe myself. They make me laugh out loud and their banter is unmatched and I cannot tell you how healing this podcast has been for me through the current free-fall of American civilization so yeah five stars for sure.

Wait, am I Troy and Kelli’s biggest fan?! Obsessed is an understatement. I quite literally *love* this podcast.

Funny, informative just plain good. 10/10. Hosts have a great back and forth feels like chatting with friends.

I never miss an episode. I love this show so much. Hosts Troy and Kelli make me feel like we’re catching up on FaceTime. I love that they wait to discuss current events/ pop culture until they record these episodes — I appreciate that it must be hard to not talk about certain things together until recording, but it definitely keeps the episodes feeling fresh and unscripted. I’ve shared the show with my sister and now she listens to every episode too! 2025 will probably be the year i become a Patron (finally!)

Please you two as trl hosts would be AMAZING

Best podcast ever with the best hosts love love love

It’s kinda my job 😘 (shhh!) & BTB is 1 of the 3 podcasts that I CHOOSE to subscribe/patreon to.

Love the show! Also has a Patreon that is worth it. I’ve been subscribed for years. I even upgraded last week.

Truly iconic and I cannot get enough.

Troy and Kelli are the best part of my week! I’ve been listening for over 3 years and they have gotten me through so much. Do yourself a favor and subscribe to their Patreon!!

I’ve been listening since the beginning and it’s been fun to watch the show grow throughout the years. The shifts in the show have only made it better. But the best part is the chemistry between Kelli and Troy. Both of them are knowledgeable, insightful, and hilarious. I’m not even really into celebrity gossip- I started listening to escape news events. Beyond the Blinds made me realize that the industry is just a mirror reflecting our larger culture and current events. Kelli and Troy are perfect tour guides through human rottedness.

The best podcast for a look into the Hollywood and celebrity underbelly. Not to be heady, but it’s quite literally “beyond” gossip - it’s a thoughtful analysis of the entertainment industry and who these people are outside of the facade they present to be worshipped by the masses.

Listening to this pod is literally so good for my ADHD. So gd funny too

I’ve been listening for years & never miss an episode. I adore Troy & Kelli & everything about beyond the blinds!

Five + stars! Love the Kiki.. Troy and Kelly make a great team.

The show keeps getting better & the Elvis episode was one of the best yet! I especially loved Kelli pointing out that this isn’t a cancellation but a history lesson as we all need to learn from the past! Troy- please write that article or book on Britney intersecting w black community & being “invited to the cookout”

A warning to the Rotted: Troy and Kelli aren’t merely hilarious and insightful pop culture critics, they are all-powerful karmic manifestors.

Perfect podcast to catch up on pop culture of the week and deep dive into celebrities and events. Appreciate Kelli and Troy so much!

This podcast was the reason I even started to like/listen to podcasts! Such fun content and great humans!

Beyond the Blinds is the only Patreon I continuously subscribe to. The content is exceptional, the hosts are hilarious and feel like I’m hanging out with friends, and the celebrity gossip and knowledge is an amazing brain cleanser with everything else going on in the world.

10/10 keep it UP

Used to be my favorite, but I'm tired of the political talk, and just because people don't want to hear it, automatically makes them crazy conservatives, I think they are losing fans because they keep taking digs at people who have different views or opinions... why would they want to pay and support if they are nasty about it? Please go back to just pop culture things.

I could listen to these two talk for hours. This is truly my comfort podcast. Love them both so so much! 🤍

I look forward to listening to the pop culture Kiki all week! Trot and Kelly are the reason my house gets cleaned!

long time listener, first time reviewer! I love this podcast so much and look forward to the new episodes every week! every episode feels like hanging out with friends. troy and kelli are so funny, and even when they’re being shady or silly you can tell they are truly kindhearted people.

Love it! Never miss an episode!

I’m a huge fan of Beyond the Blinds. I’ve been listening since episode 1, I can’t believe I’ve never rated them before. On their most recent episode they asked us to rate and review and now I see why lol. Omg the rating is supposed to be based on the show and it’s content not one line a host said that you disagree with. Anyway I love blind items but appreciate the deep dive direction this podcast has gone. Can’t wait till they’re back in NYC or possibly NJ to go to a live show!

Whenever I see a new episode released it’s an immediate listen. I love this podcast, especially the culture Kiki episodes. They have so much pop culture knowledge that I’ve forgotten over the years and it’s so fun to listen and be reminded of crazy things that happened 20 years ago.
