  • Happiness is a New Podcast

    So glad I found this “new” podcast. Good grief, it’s new to me. I started with the 50 Years of Happiness episode and, as a result, found a first edition of the book to add to my collection. It’s the Great Podcast. Thank you!

  • I’m a big Peanuts fan, but…

    They could pep it up a bit. Livelier guests with better stories. That actually go somewhere.

    And Melissa. Lord have mercy, she could put at least 65% more energy into the episodes, maybe?

    BUT I do love the episodes about incorporating Peanuts into the world of art.

  • Who doesn’t love Snoopy!

    I found this podcast and as a BIG Snoopy and the Peanuts gang fan. I am loving this podcast. So much history in each episode, I don’t want them to end. I used to read the Peanuts comic strip with my dad every Sunday growing up, we just couldn’t wait to see what they were all up too. Thank you so much for this podcast!!
