Truly thankful 🥰👍😊

I don't even know where to begin to explain my thoughts about this podcast. I have watched matt and Abby from the very beginning of their journey on youtube and its incredible how much they grew and changed. The fact that matt and Abby are around the same age as my husband and I makes this podcast so special cause we can relate to many things especially parenthood. Matt and Abby seen like the most genuine and fun people to hang out with. It would be my dream to meet you guys in person one day. Your podcast is so great that even my husband watches them with me and we get to bond by taking about similar topics that come up. Well I don't want this to be too long but to conclude that I will never stop listening to this amazing podcast and Im excited for whats more to come.

My favorite podcast!!!

The Unplanned podcast is my most favorite podcast to listen to week after week. I have listened from the very beginning and have been following the both of you since before you had Griffin. I have really enjoyed the episodes with Penvegas’, Bradley and Jake, Brooklyn and Bailey, the Beeston’s, and Sarah and Carlo. A couple of people I really want Leigh-Allyn Baker, Candace Cameron Bure, linger Vuolo, the Arnold sisters, the Irwin family. I love the podcast overall and would totally recommend to a friend.

The Most Genuine Podcast

The Unplanned Podcast is the most genuine podcast I’ve ever listened to. Matt and Abby are so infectious and heartwarming- truly making me feel like I’m actually having a conversation with them. They give great insight to how real and vulnerable they are and make me laugh when they laugh and make me cry when they cry. They’re truly one-of-a-kind!
