Listener sentiment
Do We Know Them? retains a devoted fanbase who describe hosts Jessi and Lily as feeling like best friends on a group FaceTime — a casual, entertaining way to stay current on internet drama and pop culture without endless scrolling. The hosts' chemistry, humor, and relatability are the most consistently praised qualities across the full review window. However, a vocal and growing segment of departing listeners raises recurring concerns that show no sign of abating in the most recent ratings: the show has shifted from covering major creators toward targeting smaller figures, including people struggling with mental health, which several reviewers characterize as punching down. Research quality has declined — listeners note factual errors, missing context, and apparent indifference to accuracy — and the hosts frequently present their political and religious opinions as universally shared, alienating listeners on both sides of the political spectrum. Production complaints persist around mid-sentence ad breaks, inconsistent upload times, content that doesn't translate to audio-only listening, and the paywalling of more compelling topics to Patreon while the free feed receives repetitive filler. The divide between enthusiastic core fans and frustrated former listeners remains the defining dynamic, with the latest reviews reinforcing rather than resolving that tension.
