  • By far the best most captivating podcast out there!

    I found WLG’s on accident and I am beyond thrilled I did. I’ve been listening since episode 1 and look forward to each new weekly episode. Molly is very talented and passionate about what she does and it shows. I love it! Keep up the great work! Thank you for taking the dive into the world of the wackos. It’s something not many people have the balls to do.
