Start At Birth

Start At Birth

Comedian Becky Robinson and architect Mariam Mollaghaffari couldn't be more different on paper, but their decades-long friendship tells a different story. Start at Birth is not a podcast about babies or the birthing process (sorry moms!), rather, it was a term Becky coined while impatiently suffering through another one of Mariam's long-winded, overly detailed stories — Becky interrupted asking her to please "start at birth". Take a peek behind the curtain into this unassuming friendship while Becky and Mariam exchange stories and discuss life - all with a healthy dose of banter and laughs along the way. If you have Questions for Becky or Mariam Call 213-787-7816 or email startatbirthpod@gmail.com
