Sarah, your podcast changed my life for the better! I love your voice, your laughter and the way you host the show!

Hi Sarah, your Desperation Pie episode actually is using the audio from the Rhinelander episode (if you are not aware already)
I love your housekeeping content! A fresh a fabulous take.👏👏 quick note on the desperation pie episode. Disney world didn’t open until 1971
You're wrong about is a wonderful podcast. Along with its “sister” podcast American Hysteria, they teach me a lot about American culture, media, moral panics etc. Sarah and Michael are very thorough and hilarious.
Interesting and informative podcast was ruined by hosts’ constant giggling. I won’t listen again
