Wait You're Mad?
Wait, You’re Mad? is a cozy, funny, and refreshingly honest podcast hosted by Madi and Lexie—two 30-somethings from Iowa who love pop culture, meaningful convos, and a good Midwest gripe. The show blends nostalgic tangents, spicy takes, and guest stories that land somewhere between hilarious and heartwarming. Midwest nice? Kinda. Midwest real? Always.
