I Hear You, Babe
I Hear You, Babe is your weekly voice note from someone who overshares for a living.
Hosted by Dino Malvone—founder of SaltDrop, full-time feeler, part-time hater—this pod is where we unpack the mess, the magic, the spirals, and the stuff you should probably still be talking about in therapy.
Some episodes will make you laugh so hard you snort. Others might have you crying in your car outside a CVS. Either way: you’re not alone. I hear you. I got you.
Let’s get into it.

This is I Hear You, Babe.
I just got back from Pittsburgh, got humbled by family reality, and came home to the blizzard of 2026 where I fully became your conspiracy aunt. Lucy Letby. Epstein again on Netflix with new context. 25 episodes of Killer Cases. Half a pan of brownies. Not well. But weirdly clear.
Because every story I watched had the same quiet theme: staying. Staying when your gut is screaming. Staying when it is not love anymore, it is familiarity. Staying because leaving feels like detonating your life.
Then we get into your emails: the relationship that already ended emotionally, the wedding day whisper you ignored, and the job that is slowly draining you.
If you are in that place where you know it is over but you are still there, this one is a mirror, not a lecture.
