Utah Ladies Let's Chat
A podcast for women who love Utah, love this country… and know things are getting weird.
Hosted by Angie and Leslie—two curious, bold, and slightly sarcastic women raised in conservative spaces—Utah Ladies Let’s Chat is a space for real conversations about current events, political culture, faith, gender, power, and everything we were taught not to talk about at dinner.
We’re not here to argue.
We’re here to ask questions.
We believe in truth, critical thinking, and changing our minds when we learn something new.
Sometimes funny, sometimes uncomfortable, always honest—this is a podcast for women who want to be informed, empowered, and just a little bit louder.

Paths, Papers and People
Immigration can feel complicated, confusing, and sometimes downright overwhelming—but it’s really about people and their stories. In this episode, Angie and Leslie sit down with Kristen, a corporate lawyer by day and an immigration attorney who works with refugees, to break down the jargon, myths, and real-life processes behind coming to the United States.
We cover everything from refugees and asylum seekers, to work visas, DACA, and temporary protections, and explain what the process really looks like—from background checks to resettlement. Kristen also helps us separate myth from reality: Do immigrants take our jobs or homes? Do they “get everything handed to them”? Spoiler: the answer is no.
We’ll also dive into how immigration benefits all of us, highlight risks under current policies, and discuss what regular people can do to support humane immigration. Plus, we give a peek at what’s happening in Utah and provide resources for listeners who want to help.
