“I tried to listen to this episode because it sounded interesting. I couldn’t even get 10 minutes in because he kept interrupting her! It was so annoying and hard to listen to. She is the one with the experience as a military child and yet he was the one speaking 99% of the time. Stop interrupting...”Read full review »

“New to the back seat and so far this ride has been awesome!
Listening to other millennial parents trying to navigate this crazy world, all while keeping our little humans alive, is refreshing! They don’t pretend to be perfect or tell their listeners how to raise their kids, but instead share...”Read full review »

“If you have kids, this is a must listen pod. Even if you don’t have kids, you should still listen. Dustin and Mel make a great team and tell it like it is - Andy’s occasional chime ins are great too. My new favorite pod, keep the laughs coming.”

“Recent subscriber. Love the pod. Funny, relatable. highly recommend
But - Not a fan of the Mel being interrupted so much. She handles it well. Maybe she doesn’t notice or mind it? Just something that I notice a decent amount in almost every episode.”
