  • Bring back Rumpelstiltskin

    Come for the childfree content, stay for the Rumpelstiltskin. But for real - love these two and I’ve learned a lot from listening to this show. Thank you for putting this content into the world and normalizing that it’s ok to choose a different path than what has been ingrained in us by society.

  • Insert Glowing Review Title Here

    Ok, ok, the marriage episode finally guilted me into leaving a review after listening for 2+ years. Love this podcast and the hosts. They were instrumental in solidifying my choice to be childfree, and being open about it with family, friends, and anyone that asks. The Discord community is delightful. They helped me navigate my sterilization process, and they are fun to chat with. So glad to have a voice and a child free community after growing up with the “get married and have kids” narrative.

  • Dinky love

    I absolutely love this duo! Their banter is adorable and so entertaining, and I really appreciate how they’re normalizing the DINK lifestyle. They touch on important, relevant topics in a way that makes me want to learn more, and their approach is both funny and approachable. The guests they bring on are always such a great addition too. This podcast is fun, smart, and relatable—I look forward to every episode!

  • Uplifting, necessary voices for a more balanced society

    This show has been invaluable for me for validating my decision to be childfree and for coverage of related topics that had never before been on my radar. I’ve even started a (shockingly well attended) social group for dinks and sinks in my community, in spite of being an introvert, partly because of the ladies’ continuing emphasis on the importance of childfree friendships.
