Meghan Markle's new podcast, "Confessions of a Female Founder," debuted to underwhelming reception, ranked only 10th on Spotify's US chart compared to her previous podcast, "Archetypes," which hit number 1. Featuring Bumble founder Whitney Wolfe Herd, critiques labeled the content as superficial, with many reviewers voicing disappointment over a lack of in-depth discussion and perceiving it instead as self-referential. Notable publications, including the Times of London and the Guardian, delivered scathing reviews, emphasizing the show's failure to deliver genuine confessions or engaging dialogues, which may impact its longevity and Markle's podcasting reputation.
...the Times of London's columnist James Marriott was 'seized by an urge to beat my head against the wall' after listening to the episode.
Chris Bennion described Markle's podcast as having an 'inane stream of mindless aphorisms' with 'no confessions or secrets.'
Meanwhile, the Guardian noted the podcast as a 'sycophantic interview podcast' that is 'stomach-turning.'
Despite the anticipation, as of Monday, the podcast was ranked number 10 on Spotify's general Top Podcasts chart in the US.
