We're about to be Kid Sisters
The problem I have with this podcast is that I feel like everyone you interview is now MY FRIEND and when I send them friend-like twitter messages like "hey butter wrangler!" or "america's not ready for that!" they think I'm creepy! I guess that's a true testament to how good you are at making friends! I'm glad you're my friend. I love this podcast like I love you! (which is LOTS)
Super entertaining
So happy to have more podcast fun to listen to with Joy the Baker. I think having Aarti as a guest was perfect, she is as bubbly and funny as Joy! Looking forward to listening to who else Joy can (butter) wrangle into letting her interview them next.
Another one to look forward to
I've been listening to the Joy the Baker podcast since it started and absolutely love it and am so excited whenever I see a new episode. So, when I saw that Joy had a new podcast I downloaded it immediately and was not disappointed! The episode with Aarti was so inspiring and felt like I was hanging out with a few of my great girlfriends who were giving me advice, friend to friend. Can't wait for more!
