Such a fun podcast, thank you, Kelli!
Kelli - So glad I found BTB years ago and glad I have another podcast to listen with Nostalgia and Now! Love it!
Listener from BTB who now loves this one. Thanks for being vulnerable and sharing more about your life!
…is just one rip off after the other! Even your vernacular is just stuff you’ve heard people like Danny Pelegrino. You and your fat co host just steal from others.
Kelli you are awesome. Loved the ep. It really spoke to me. So honest, so real, so genuinely comforting because you’re in a good place!!! Millennial drinking culture was out of control and I’m glad younger generations are drinking less!
