Nataly Aukar and Monica Hanna

Nat and Monica are best friends who probably talk too much, validate each other way too easily, and are always told to shut the f up. So they decided to start a podcast. To NEVER shut up and ALWAYS continue to talk. Every week they bring their frustrations, their Arab mom trauma, and their unconditional love for each other. Pull up a chair and join the hang.
