You can feel the friendship between the two and that they are trying their best to make a great podcast.

looking at the other reviews they say too much banter. I kinda like that myself. It's a new pod and I'm sure they will just get better and better and listen to some of yalls critiques. I think they are growing just fine and it will just get better as they go. Here's to you ladies. Look forward to yall every week.

The content is fantastic

I'd give 5 stars if the banter was significantly reduced. One episode had nearly 20 minutes of side conversation before getting to the story. The Enola and aunt caroline episodes were top notch, though.

Too much banter

Good stories but calm down and get to it. Your stories could be greatly tightened up.
