What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

A real, raw look at the lives of dance moms off-camera. It's full of honesty, humor, and real talk about motherhood, struggles, and triumphs. If you’re into stories that are messy, heartwarming, and totally relatable, this podcast is a vibe. 10/10 recommend!

freshbean · Dec 2024

I personally love this podcast and love listening to it while driving to school or when I’m bored. It’s genuinely love listening them talk about questions and personal life, however Mellisa has a huge problem of cutting the other hosts off. Many times it has been annoying and has to be for the other girls. When she’s not cutting people off, its a funny podcast and I would recommend to a friend or a dance mom fan.

Tay 👻🐺 · Aug 2024

I generally like the show, but they talk a ton about Pittsburgh. It’s like they forget that they have listeners and that they aren’t having a personal conversation in their living room. For example, I don’t care about the Pittsburgh airport getting Clear, nor do I I care about the stores in a particular town. Sometimes when they talk about their town, you can relate, but other times it’s just boring. I still like the moms and the general conversation. The difference between the two podcasts is not quite clear at this point though.

I love this podcast, but surely I’m not the only one who gasped when Melissa shared Greg’s cheer about grabbing a rope & tree to hang the referee?! Very insensitive considering our nation’s history of lynching.
