“I only wish I’d found this podcast sooner! When I was first trying to decide about having children, I didn’t know of ANY child free content or spaces and felt so alone and weird for even questioning it. Now I’ve learned there are so many people like me and my partner, and Dinky has been SO...”Read full review »

“I found this podcast from instagram, Dinkypod. While I knew it was the instagram for a podcast, it took me forever to listen to an episode. But I’m so glad I did! Slowly listening through the older episodes, my favorite has been the wealth management and financial planning episode.”

“I love the pod. It’s the perfect balance between hilarious and educational. I feel like I learn so much and get to laugh with my parasocial phone friends about cheese grottos and red lobster. The ladies have kept me highly entertained through a lot of medium distance relationship driving. But...”Read full review »

It is the validation that so many of us lack from society at large. Erica & Kristen do amazing research on each of their topics,...”Read full review »

“Thank you for this show. I throughly enjoy it. I’m 29 and the expectation to have kids is growing in every aspect of my life. I don’t want to. I will never want to. I’ve never had that plan for my life. In fact when I was a little girl, I loathed the baby dolls gifted to me and I loathed playing...”Read full review »

“I’m usually not a podcast person, but recently started listening to Dinky. I love this podcast so much. If you are childfree or if you’re a fence sitter, you will probably love listening to Kristen and Erika’s commentary. They really take a deep look into childfree living, from financial...”Read full review »

So much childfree content is emotional, serious, and kind of a downer. This podcast is not that!! It grapples with...”Read full review »

“I found this podcast because I started following childfree and dinky content on instagram and liked their content.

“I listened to two episodes and found them very insightful. I’m childfree and proud of my decision.
