Little House on the Prairie 50th Anniversary Podcast

I’ve been listening since the very beginning and love this podcast, but I did want to say Pamela your mic cuts in and out the last several episodes lol I listen to other shows and so far I don’t think it’s an issue with my phone, but I thought I mention it just in case others have heard the same! Love you guys, and thank you for the nostalgia!

Let me start by saying I am a HUGE little house fan, I’ve been watching since the 80s. I’m also a huge fan of Pamela’s series. The content here is great! I’ve been listening ever since the first episode and I love that you’re doing episode recaps now although I do wish you would sprinkle in more interviews. Here are my criticisms and please know that they are given with love! I absolutely adore Allison. I listen to her podcast as well. But… Allison, my love, you talk a mile a minute. When you’re speaking with people person to person it’s one thing. But listening to a podcast with someone who speaks very fast and doesn’t always finish the first sentence before jumping to the next one lol, it can be difficult to get your bearings in the conversation. So I would just suggest Allison to please slow down just a bit if possible, would make listening easier for sure and more pleasant. Pamela, I love you as well, but I feel like you are louder, volume wise than the other others. I’m not sure if it’s your mic or if maybe you’re leaning too close. But it can be grating with the volume. Also, I love your point of view and interjections, but you tend to laugh maniacally lol, like this insane cackling which is funny for a bit, but after a while, it starts to grate. So just be aware that speaking with people conversationally is one thing but when you have people listening through a podcast, it can make it unpleasant to listen to. Also, I would like to offer that not everything that makes us scared or uncomfortable is trauma. I know it’s a word that’s really overused these days and Pamela uses it a lot. I can’t think of any episode of Little House on the Prairie that has caused anyone real trauma. And Dean, thank God for Dean! If we didn’t have him to reign in the other two, I don’t know what the hell would happen! Haha. He tends to be a voice of reason and he also has a great podcast voice. Very pleasant to listen to, keep it up, Dean! And lastly, my only other criticism is the ad breaks. I’m all for you guys running ads and making money for the pod, but for the love of God do they have to begin mid sentence? It’s very jarring when an ad break comes in while one of you are talking about something. Is there no way to remedy this and have the ads begin at a more reasonable time? And that’s it! All that said, you three could probably just screech into the microphone and I would still listen because I love you guys that much. So keep up the good work! I’ll keep listening!

Thanks for providing us with some much needed stress relief during these very stressful times, listening to all things Little House transports us back to simpler days. I enjoy the interviews with other cast and crew. Would love a delve into some of the stories from the books in addition to the TV series. *Please* whoever’s phone or computer keeps dinging with notifications dozens of times an episode, can it please be silenced? Thank you!

I’m powering through the recaps of episodes and it’s fun to hear the add ons to episodes that I didn’t know about! The production could use some improvement though. Ads are often starting in the middle of a sentence and should be placed at a more logical stopping point. At least they are easy to skip. And someone’s phone needs to be put on do not disturb/silent.
