- 8/28/25 episode comments on childfree people
I’ve been a fan of the pod for a while but this episode rubbed me the wrong way. Just as it would be infuriating for two child free people to have a conversation about motherhood, this was frustrating. Felt like you both were lecturing child free people and have never actually spoken to one. Very derivative. Hope to still listen but would love if you guys would revive this feedback and think on it. Thanks
