Madison McGhee: 如果我能预见到播客对我的影响，我可能就不会开始了。虽然播客带来了一些美好的事情，但它也让我背负了沉重的负担。我从一个追求创作的电影人变成了“死去的父亲的女孩”，这让我感到很沉重。我感到一种公开的压力，要在Instagram上发布我父亲的生日，即使他已经去世了。我接到很多关于死去的父亲的故事，我称之为创伤倾诉，我甚至会做关于这些故事的噩梦。我想帮助每一个人，但这几乎是不可能的。做这个播客是我一生中最好也是最糟糕的事情。 Brittani Ard: 我对约会和重新开始感到焦虑，我不想总是被看作是和糟糕的男人约会的人。我很高兴播客很受欢迎，因为很多女性分享了她们的故事，并表示她们感同身受。我阿姨听了播客后说，她不知道我经历的那些事。我总是认为这就像犯罪现场调查迈阿密一样，每个人都出现并试图找出指纹和纤维。人们想要人与人之间的联系。
