Hi folks!
A few weeks ago I was able to sit down and discuss all things Sister Wives, podcasting, and even some pandemic stories with Amanda Lipnack-Radel of Little Miss Recap, Amanda's Coaching Corner, and more.
We cover some reactions to Season 19, Little Miss Recap, and I have her both predict the future of the Brown family and do some word association. It was a very, very fun conversation and i'm so glad you get to hear it.
Content warning - this episode deals with the fallout of Garrison Brown's passing, including his memorial service.
The Brown family gathers to say goodbye to Garrison. Kody and Robyn continue to be separated from the rest, but there are some significant connections in grief between Kody and Janelle.
This is a hard one, folks. Thanks for covering it with me.
If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, help is ava...
