"I never knew a survival podcast is what would unite us all. I listen to this while driving Uber in Chicago. More than half of my riders tell me how much they've enjoyed listening to this show during the ride/say it was their fav Uber so far. All ages, all backgrounds. Everyone in Chicago digs y'all as much as I do :)"
"I usually listen on Monday morning as I make coffee then sit down with Kaycee and Julie as they tell me a survival story. I listen to a lot of podcasts and think you two do a great job! Keep up the good work."
