Miss Understood with Rachel Uchitel

This podcast will delve into the lives of those who have been reduced to a single headline. Each episode will take a closer look at the stories of those who are on a mission to change their narrative. Through raw and honest interviews, we will reveal the human behind the headline. Join me, as we uncover the truth behind the misconceptions, shed light on the stories of those who have perhaps been wrongfully portrayed, explore the complexities of the human experience, and celebrate the power of second chances.

What People Are Saying About The Podcast:

    I want to thank you the kindness you showed me when I was on your show. There is something about you as an interviewer (and person) that is very special. You made me feel seen and not judged. I really appreciate that. I have been binging your show and I really enjoy it. I’m not just saying that either. You are very talented and I think what makes you such a great interviewer is that you have been through a lot of shit in your own life. You are able to be direct but you have empathy at the same time. You know when it isn’t appropriate to push anymore. Most journalists don’t have that and I think that is what sets you apart.

      So I don’t have much room for new podcasts. I gave Miss Understood a listen initially because I am interested in the Ellen Greenberg case. Then it sat for a while. #nonewfriends, am I right? But THEN..! listened to a few other episodes. I love this whole show. Rachel is smart, authentic, insightful, and makes me rethink everything I *think* I know about people. I’ve heard some of her guests interviewed by others. Rachel’s neutral, nonjudgmental approach is quite disarming-guests actually answer her questions and seem so much less defensive (vs other interviews I’ve heard) that it has actually made me second guess my opinions about those who are..misunderstood. If you want to learn about people and popular media subjects from someone who is not only relatable, but…NOT a moron, give her a listen! Miss Understood has earned a permanent spot in my rotation, and ai even subscribed to the paid membership be I couldn’t get enough. Enjoy!

            I just recently discovered your podcast. My option of you has completely changed – i never thought about your side but I can now appreciate how difficult it must have been and how classy you handled such a difficult situation. Your podcast interviews are professional, interesting and fun. You have a sincere connection with guests that cannot be faked. Keep up the good work!

                I loved Rachel for forever now. After listening for several years now I love her even more! She’s so raw, honest, phenomenal interviewer. Every episode is so well thought and executed perfectly. It’s like she was born for this profession.

                  Leaving this review as a subject of podcasts, I have to say it’s so refreshing to be interviewed by someone who asks good questions and does her research. I notice this in all Rachel’s interviews. Fair and balanced, with compassion. Love Rachel. Xo

                    Rachel asks the questions you want to ask yourself and gets to the point without getting distracted by self-referencing. She doesn’t back down on the awkward subjects and at the same time is warm enough to not alienate her guest. Good job Rachel.

                            Rachel is highly gifted with a profound connection to those she interviews and her audience. Not only does she come from a place of deep compassion and empathy, she brings knowledge that crates an inner circle between audience, guest and host. Keep bringing us the magic Rachel! Forever grateful!

                                To know Rachel Uchitel is to love her. I never expected her to be so down-to-Earth, self-deprecating, kind and very genuine. But every time I am a guest on her aptly-named podcast, “MIss Understood,” I always have a great time. And that’s because as an interviewer, she knows when to chime in, when to get to the juicy stuff and when to hammer it all home. I am more and more impressed at how many big-name guests she talks with and never comes away looking unprepared or unsure of how to keep it all entertaining. I adore her.

                                  Rachel Uchitel is a genuine host who hones in on intriguing topics and talent. I look forward to her podcast show every week to see what she’ll uncover and to learn more about her interesting guests. Rachel is very fashionable and also has her own branded merchandise available on mumerch.com. I love your sense of style and following your passionate endeavors for the truth.

                                      This is literally one of, if not the best, podcast out there. Well thought out topics and guests. The questions are exactly what I find myself asking in my head as they are talking!! Every week is a new misunderstood person or topic. Rachel is really very talented.
