    EP 220 Kelli and Anne come to you all the way from Casablanca, Morocco!

    EP 220 Kelli and Anne come to you all the way from Casablanca, Morocco!

    Join Anne & Kelli for their 220th NEW episode of #ilovemywife podcast! On the Road from Casablanca, Morocco!
    In the fifth episode of Season 5 they start by talking about podcasting from their hotel room at The Four Seasons in Casablanca, Morocco! It’s a dry hotel so they just went to a café for a bottle of rose pre show and stopped off at the ocean front McDonald’s for a quick fry and to make a Tik Tok! Stay tuned for that!
    First, they update you on the past two weeks on Kelli’s River cruise trip through the Netherlands and the additional challenges that arose and how they had to pivot and adjust along the way including insane weather changes, a blown engine, Anne taking a fall, and so much more. In the end, they reflect on how much the entire experience brought the group together even better and it ended up being a wonderful time with family and old and new friends.
    Next, they talk about their journey to London for Anne’s concert that began with a train trip from Amsterdam to London, along with dragging their massive bags across ‘the gap’ on to the train, a lovely First Class train experience, a stay at the gorgeous new Broadwick Soho Hotel, Anne’s wildly successful show at Crazy Coqs and finally a big after party out at the London bars with good friends.
    Lastly, they talk about their few days in Morocco. They spent 2 days touring with a fabulous tour company called Inclusive Morocco. They had a private driver for 2 days that took them to the capitol city of Rabat for the day and to tour Casablanca the next day. They loved every second of this beautiful place. Now they will board an Atlas Ocean Voyages cruise for 3 weeks through Spain and France because Anne is headlining on the ship. So stay tuned for that!
    Finally, they do their new segment called “Neat or On the Rocks”. This is where they each pick a positive (neat) and a negative (on the rocks) thing that has happened to each of them since the last episode. They did not discuss their answers until they are recording the episode so you will hear their reactions live to tape! They also ask that YOU write them with your picks for “Neat or On the Rocks” or any other ideas you may have for new topics for discussion!
    Don’t forget to check out all of Anne’s upcoming tour dates including Chicago on May 31st and June 1st at Davenports. You can find all of her tour dates at www.annesteele.com

    Ep 216: Anne & Kelli are back and taking you on the road with them! Hear about all their new adventures and what comes next!

    Join Anne & Kelli for their 216th NEW episode of #ilovemywife podcast! They are back!
    After an almost 2 year break from podcasting, they are back! The last episode aired in June of 2022 when their lives were suddenly busy and full of travel and touring again. They knew that they had to take a break but they hoped it would just be a pause and not a permanent end. That is what happened. 
    Along with Romaine from DNR Studios, they have come up with a new format. They are taking you on the road with them. Whether they are on a cruise ship, at one of Anne's concert tour cities, on a mega yacht, or in a hotel room YOU will be with them. It will be more focused on their lives and less guest focused, however that doesn't mean that when they meet up with interesting people along the way that they won't pop into a podcast here and there. They will again be working with their fabulous producer AJ at DNR Studios so that you will get the same quality you have come to expect from #ilovemywife podcast.  They will air a NEW epiosde twice a month so about every 2 weeks or so. Some will be short and some will be long depending on how much has happened. This one is long because they had so much to tell you!
    In this epiosde they catch you up on what has been happening for them the last 2 years including officially becoming empty nesters, getting adjusted to their new home in Jersey City, Kelli rebranding her travel company R Family Vacations to KelliGreggTravel and all the exciting trips that have hosted and have to come, Anne's tour schedule and the cool events she has done over the past 2 years, plus just fun travel and concerts they have shared together.
    They are so glad to be back with you! Make sure to follow them on social media to stay connected and to find out when the new episodes will drop! As always you can stream on DNR Studios or you can listen anywhere you get your podcasts.

    Today they are starting off with a little news. Now that life is up and going and Anne is back on tour and booking gigs on cruise and Kelli is booking lots of exciting travel and they are both traveling a lot, they have decided to press pause on the podcast for awhile. They have loved these past 4 years and 4 seasons of doing the show. They have gotten to showcase so many of their incredibly talented friends PLUS meet lots of new interesting people from all different fields that they never would’ve been able to meet without this show. They also have to thank Derek and Romaine for giving them the chance to do the show and for being so supportive and helpful through the entire process.
    As always they check in about their lives and update you on their big move, Jersey City restaurants, seeing Melissa Etheridge at City Winery NYC, their 9 year wedding anniversary, Vivi’s first college apartment and all that comes with that process and the generation divide between their movie choices from the 80’s.
    Next they reached out to some of their all time favorite guests and asked them to send in a message about why they loved being onI Love My Wife Podcast. From Sharon Gless to Sam Harris to Miss Richfield 1981 to Sandy Bernhard to Billy Stritch, every message made them smile and they hope they make you happy too. They have had a blast these last 4 years and have really loved getting to know so many listeners through social media, at Anne's shows and even on Kelli’s trips! Over the summer they are going to rerun some of their favorite episodes from the past. Every other week make sure to check in to hear some fantastic chats with their incredible guests. Please continue to follow them on social media to see all of Anne’s concerts and their  travels over the Summer and into the Fall. IG: @Ilovemywifepodcast FB: Ilovemywife Twitter: @ilovemywifelive

Love this podcast!

I discovered this podcast when researching another singer who I had worked with, and was quickly hooked into hearing more! I am happy that Anne and Kelli have decided to resume the format and the window into their busy, adventurous and very unique lives. Their connection and banter is warm hearted, fun and inspiring. I look forward to checking out the upcoming episodes this year, and know that I will probably be exhausted with the sheer pace of their travel, working schedules and life in general.. they make me feel like I am sometimes standing still!…

Love and Adventure

As a devoted wife, finding podcasts that resonate with my journey is always a joy. "I Love My Wife" podcast, hosted by the dynamic duo Kelli Carpenter and Anne Steele, is an absolute gem in the realm of authentic storytelling and genuine camaraderie. Kelli's expertise as a travel consultant and Anne's mesmerizing voice add layers of depth to each episode, whisking listeners away on a journey filled with wanderlust and wonder. Their anecdotes, infused with love, laughter, and the occasional mishap, make every episode a delightful escape from the mundane. What sets this podcast apart is its unwavering authenticity and relatability. As empty nesters who cherish their kids, families, in-laws, and friends, Kelli and Anne effortlessly weave personal experiences into their narratives, creating a tapestry of warmth and inclusivity. Their globe-trotting adventures and onstage performances offer a glimpse into a life filled with love, laughter, and boundless exploration. As someone who cherishes their spouse and the adventures we embark on together, "I Love My Wife" podcast resonates with me on a profound level.
