THE highlight of my day!

I truly look forward to the episodes coming out & enjoy every single one of them! They are so relatable, and allow me to reflect on my own opinion about these topics as well. I feel like i’m sitting on the couch with them (sometimes i even start talking as if i were in the room with them). THE HIGHLIGHT OF MY DAY!!

Best new podcast!

This podcast has such a unique fun and fresh vibe! Very relatable for not only people in their 20-somethings, but for anyone seeking perspective on real-life discourse. If you give this podcast a listen, you won’t regret it!

before I started listening to Cry About It, I was depressed, living at home, broke, and 5’1”.

BUT NOW I live in a mansion, I am dating a super model, I listen to this podcast in my Lambo Truck on my way to my job as a stock broker at Berkshire Hathaway AND I’m 6’7”.

THANK YOU Cry About It!!!
