🔗 Sruthi Pinnamaneni and PJ Vogt leave Reply All after allegations of union busting and toxic behavior

Gimlet/Reply All news:

according to an internal email, PJ Vogt “has asked to step down from his role on the show and take a leave of absence.”

Sruthi Pinnamaneni is also stepping back from the show immediately.

Pretty wild especially given the reporting they have been doing with The Test Kitchen, which seems to be up in the air now with this news.

I’m always curious about the inner-workings of these types of scenarios and what their actual behavior was like, whether subtle undermining, overbearing toxicity, etc.

Now I just wonder what Reply All will be like with just Alex Goldman and Emmanuel Dzotsi moving forward. The reporting Dzotsi has done, especially with The Real Emery last year, has been excellent, but a big piece of Reply All is the chemistry between Goldman and Vogt.
