Love Ellie and Michaela!!

LND is quickly becoming my favorite podcast. Ellie and Michaela are so hilarious, vulnerable, kind and really insightful on topics like mental health and relationships. Listening is so comforting, like chatting with a best friend!

Gossiping in the car with your friends

I have been following Ellie and Michaela since 2018! (Throwback to when Michaela had like 3 Twitter accounts and would comment back and forth between them) They are hilarious, down to earth and entertaining. This podcast feels like gossiping with your girlfriends in the car. They are the older sisters I never had. LOVE the pod!! Glad to see the direction it’s going 🤍
