  • Eh

    I use to listen but I don’t know what happened to her voice. It seems like she has a hard time talking without getting out of breath and sounds very nasally. Maybe it’s the mic? Not really sure.

  • Ugh I love Brittany

    I have been a huge fan of Brittany since day 1. But looking forward to a podcast every Friday and getting “rewinds” is frustrating. As a mama of an autistic toddler, I thought I’d hear more about her journey. I realize she’s a busy mama and I’m proud of her but I think to be successful as a podcast host, more needs to be done. And also, whoever is editing these podcasts… Kailyn Lowry is from 16&pregnant/Teen mom… not super sweet 16.

    We know that you spend a lot of time with your son. You don’t have to tell us that every single episode, the people who are listening to your podcast already know that. I feel like you say 24/7 and ah-mazing every single episode.
