  • Great pod!

    Melissa has such a calming voice that makes this podcast even better to listen to. Never mind the thoughtful interviews, insightful guests, and wide range of topics. I recommend to anyone with diabetes or anyone who knows someone with diabetes to help them understand the disease better.
