  • A delight every week

    I started listening after Ed joined LPOTL. He brought a sense of joy I didn’t realize was missing. So I decided to listen to The Brighter Side…. Amber is AWESOME! She and Ed bounce off each other like old chums. Both are honest and hilarious. And the LPN sick sense of humor is totally intact.

    I miss having brighter side stories every week, but I’m so thankful to have this podcast in my life. My fav on all of LPN (even LPOTL proper. Haha.)
