Man, I needed this! So glad you switched format and giving us a daily story. In a sea of bad news and anxiety producing stories, thanks for providing something to look forward to with your relatable and insightful stories.

I appreciate the stories. They are very relatable. He shows that you can tell a story without profanity or vulgarity and keep the stories engaging and interesting!

I’ve been listening to Homemade since I first saw Shannon perform on Snap Judgment Live! in Los Angeles…Shannon is authentic, perceptive, funny…so real. Loving Everyday is a Story

Able to Can · Apr 2026

Greetings Shannon I love listening to podcasts. Shamefully, I have never submitted a review until now. The authenticity of your storytelling so moved me that I was compelled to write this review to let you know how much I appreciate your podcast. You have inspired me to continue my podcast by simply being myself. Thanks again for your genuine storytelling as it’s heartwarming & encouraging. When I am in position to do so I plan to express my gratitude monetarily, however, I will make sure to give you a shout out once I launch my little podcast The Cocoa Butter PODcast, especially since I am from ChiTown & that will be my base audience. Thank you SO much for your contribution & sharing The Gift of You, with us. InJOY Darla Stewart P.S. I use the same strategy with the Starbucks coffee 😂 but for free99 by asking for a cup of hot water & then from my box of Passion Tazo Tea I purchased from Walmart, for the same price as one cup of tea from Starbucks, I drop my Tazo tea bag in my free99 Starbucks cup of hot water & sit down & say, welcome to my office! Blessings 😇
