Dear Diary Keep Out
This is a podcast where I read from my teenage diaries and my husband and the occasional guest make fun of me or validate my memoirs. We talk big issues I faced and that teenagers today have to deal with too. I have 22 diaries in total spanning from 12 years old up until about 19. We're going start to finish, so you can dip in wherever you like or start at Episode 1 for the total story!
