‘The See The Thing Is…’ podcast is ending after Bridget Kelly and Mandii B announced the news on X Monday night (Feb.19).
The singer/songwriter (37) and the influencer/content creator (33) said farewell to fans with a heartfelt special announcement:
“After an incredible journey filled with laughter, tears, and unforgettable moments, we are sad to announce that the “See, the Thing Is…” podcast will be coming to an end. Over the past three years, we have shared stories, insights, and discussions that have touched the hearts of our listeners in ways we couldn’t have imagined.”
“As the creators, we have made the difficult decision to bring this chapter to a close as we pursue new opportunities and navigate creative differences. Like the end of a beloved series, we believe it’s essential to conclude at a point that honors the essence of what made our podcast special.”
“We are immensely grateful to our dedicated listeners and supporters who have been with us every step of the way. Your enthusiasm, feedback, and engagement have meant the world to us, and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being part of this incredible journey.”
“Thank you once again for your unwavering support. Here’s to new beginnings and endless possibilities.”
‘See The Thing Is…’ offered a female perspective on pop culture. On YouTube, the podcast has accumulated over 102,000 subscribers. In addition to celebrity guests, the podcast hosted a live tour across the U.S. Fans and critics alike praised the chemistry between the hosts.
The ‘See The Thing Is…’ podcast was launched in 2020 as part of the Joe Budden Network, with original hosts Bridget Kelly, Mandii B, and DJ Olivia Dope. Dope left the podcast soon after its launch, and See The Thing Is departed from the Joe Budden Network after its first season amicably in 2021.
“We decided that it was time to graduate and grow and transcend above and beyond everyone’s expectations,” said Kelly in a 2021 interview. “This platform is an opportunity to transcend and grow, and fly out on our own.”
Fans shared their appreciation on social media following the announcement. “I’d like to say thank you. we laughed, cried and grew as a podcast family. Looking forward to seeing what is next for you,” said @DeeDotCharles under Mandii B’s announcement on X.
“Thank You Sisters for everything and everyone you all introduced to the culture and to me. Stay Fly,” commented @Urban_american, while X user @KemmaSaidIt said: “Ugh such an amazing pod!! I’m sad but I get it. I’m really going to miss y’all together.”
Mandii B will keep hosting ‘Whoreible Decisions’ podcast with co-host Gila “WeezyWTF” Shlomi while Bridget Kelly’s future plans remain unknown. ‘Whoreible Decisions’ is available on YouTube and the Black Effect Podcast Network.
