This podcast starts how every unhinged mom group post does: “Delete if not allowed…” Rachel and Cori are two best friends who became moms at the same time through very different paths - and talk through everything you’d ask (or be too nervous to ask) your mom group about. Whether you’re a silky mom, a crunchy mom, or somewhere in between - they’ve got something for you. Their hilarious anecdotes, hot takes on all things parenting, and advice for new moms will keep you laughing when your toddler makes you want to cry.
