  • Pregnant Madi is Unhinged and I love it

    I love pregnant Madi! She’s blunt and HILARIOUS! haha she has not held back the past nine months and I’ve found myself laughing out loud while listening.

    I’ve listened for years and I’ve my children around the same time and her experience with pregnancy and postpartum is relatable. She’s often made me feel like I’m not alone in my struggles and strongly supports moms. I will love no other podcast the same. All hail the bad broadcast!

This week, Madi did an episode swap with What We Said. When they talked about online culture and things like positive/negative comments, people that hate follow, etc it kinda blew my mind. I realized they are deeply aware of dynamics that aren’t often talked about. How we criticize/cancel/comment negatively on people online a... more

  • Bad broad forever

    I’ve been listening since 2020 and the bad broadcast has remained my very favorite podcast. I’ve loved listening to madi’s motherhood journey while becoming a mom myself.

    Madi is hilarious and has the best takes. I couldn’t disagree more with the few bad reviews. This is a 5 star podcast!

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

YOUR BURNING QUESTIONS
Q: Why do I feel the pressure to be all the way in or all the way out of the church?
The gray area around faith can feel necessary for personal evolution, but it also creates tension between black-and-white expectations and nuanced beliefs; staying in the church with openness to change may enable progress, while leaving can feel relieving but complex.
MEET THE BROTHERS: PART III
Q: Would you rather know when you die or how you die?
They argue that knowing when is more comforting and allows for practical preparation, while knowing how could lead to more fear and anxiety.
MEET THE BROTHERS: PART III
Q: Would you rather have every day, the first half of your day is perfect or every day, the second half of your day is perfect?
The hosts discuss being morning people versus night owls, leaning toward valuing a morning-perfect day while acknowledging the trade-offs with parenting and schedules.
THE OSCARS PREP SHOW (FEAT. LUCY!)
Q: On the New York Times Top 100 list, who is the director listed the most times?
Christopher Nolan; the dialogue walks through clues and eventually confirms Nolan as the director with multiple top entries, including Interstellar, Inception, Memento, and others.
Standing on Normal
Q: How do I convince my friends who left my faith that I don't think any less of them?
