Top 5 Chew

Top 5 Chew

Top 5 Chew is a podcast about people and their Top 5 everything. Every episode, your host, Natty Galde, along with a special guest, discuss the topic of the day with no real clue where the dialogue will lead, and that's the joy of it. Follow us down the rabbit hole of candid conversations on your commute. Start the day with something to chew on.

Episodes

Miriel and Natty continue to navigate through our messy pasts and we dig up parts of our lives that we're not necessarily proud of, but definitely made us the better adjusted elder millennials we are today. We still have much to learn and maybe we can give you some of our own mistakes to learn from, so you don't have to.


CONTENT DISCLAIMER: This episode touches briefly on the topics of bullying and cults.

Truly, our worst selves on total display for your listening pleasure. Enjoy the tea. Esta caliente.
