Fave new podcast

I’m so glad this podcast exists. Divorce is not fun and it’s complicated and emotional. But the hosts not only break the process down, they are hilarious and lovable. Thank you for bringing lightness, humor and hope to a heavy topic! I binged the whole season..please have a season 2!!!
