Really like this season, Tradwives was one of the best and well-balanced episodes and look forward to more!!
I love the honesty of each of the Proof episodes. Especially this one. Raising children in the 80s when it wasn’t cool to be a stay home, it was hard to convince folks you were working, at home. The balanced, shared information on Proof always empowers us to look past the surface. Y’all are definitely living up to your name. Thank you for such interesting, entertaining, and educational shows.
I love his soothing voice and the storytelling. But why do the credits still say Bridget is the host when she’s been replaced by Kevin? More storytelling by Kevin Pang, please!
I love the rattlesnake round up episode. I love the way Avery tells a story and it left me wanting more. Looking forward to the next one!
This mini series is fabulous. As are all the other shows !!
