Wait What!? with Aimee Mayo
If you love funny Southern storytelling like Theo Von and a podcast that feels like comedy, confession, and therapy rolled into one— hit songwriter and bestselling author Aimee Mayo talks about family dysfunction, Southern childhood chaos, fame, trauma, motherhood, marriage, mental health, and all the things people whisper about but never say out loud.
The unhinged decisions that made perfect sense at the time. The stuff most people take to the grave, but Aimee talks about into a microphone.
Some episodes are just Aimee. Some are guests with stories so wild they feel made up. Either way, every conversation is honest, emotional, and impossible to stop listening to.
One minute you are laughing at something you probably should not be laughing at, and the next you feel seen in ways you did not expect.
It is about the moments in life that make you say "wait, what?" because the craziest stories are the true ones. For listeners who want real people, real chaos, and big laughs, there is nothing else like this.

Aimee Mayo sits down with country music superstar Martina McBride for a wild and emotional conversation packed with shocking moments, backstage confessions, and stories no one has ever heard. Martina talks about how Independence Day changed women’s lives, the miracle voicemail that saved her dad’s last phone call. Aimee explains why she made Tony Robbins cry, how Theo Von inspired her to start a podcast, and the moment she started lactating when she met Rick Springfield. They dive into true crime obsessions, Nashville’s golden era, manifestation, teen crushes, fame, and what happens when kids grow up. Along the way, Aimee reveals that Kris Kristofferson got knocked out cold in her kitchen, Kenny Chesney kicked Eddie Van Halen off his own tour bus, and Martina finally got to sing with her hero Pat Benatar. There is grief, laughter, shock, and the story of another famous singer whose tampon flew out onstage. Martina also reveals what she is building next and why an empty nest is not the end. It is the beginning of everything.
