  • Old episodes?

    I’ve been a listener from the very beginning! I can’t help but say “hi Mandy how are you” along with Melissa every time. And sometimes when I’m not even listening at all. BUT. When did you put the old episodes behind a paywall? I fall asleep to the reruns and I was sad to see I can’t go back to the beginning. Either way, 5⭐️s, I love you guys.

  • Is someone dying funny?

    Wow couldn’t get through more than two episodes with obnoxious giggling telling the story of someone’s murder. I hope something horrible never happens to one of your family members & someone tells their story with such disrespect

  • Great Listen

    Easy to listen too, not too serious and not too comedic. Perfect balance. The content and research is very well done. Also found y’all on accident and I’m happy to stick around!
