Love the podcast, just needs an audio tweak!
The episodes are fantastic, but the audio levels can be a bit inconsistent. I find myself constantly adjusting the volume button to hear everything clearly.

Love this podcast buuut
I love this podcast, I love the topics the information everything HOWEVER LOL, One of you sit there and constantly go “mm” or “mmhm” after every 3 words when someone is talking and it’s enough to make me not listen…. 🫣 I’m sorry lol idk why but it’s so distracting lol

Sad
Normally, I love Almost 30 content, but the Ben Hart episode really disappointed me. He basically said women have to “prove their worth” if they want a guy to pick them. It felt so backwards and the opposite of what Almost 30 normally stands for. Krista and Lindsey were giving major “pick me girl” enabling energy and it was just sad.

Used to be great, now MAHA propaganda
I loved this podcast in 2018 in my mid twenties. The past few years it’s disintegrated into dangerous views about health and spirituality talk that borders full scam get rich by manifesting bs. It’s sad to see the direction this has gone on - this is a true example of the wellness girlie to MAGA pipeline

Evolving with A30
I found almost 30 in my early 20s when I was just starting to explore my own spirituality on a deeper level. It’s been such a beautiful journey as I’m now 31 evolving with the podcast. Krista and Lindsey have created such a special place to dive deeper into all of the different topics that women of all ages at one point or another think about. I feel like this is my little safe space of the internet and I’m so grateful for this pod!

My favs!
This podcast has given me so much inspiration over the years, and has helped shape me into the woman that I am. Thank you to Lindsey and Krista for the amazing conversations that I get to listen in on, while driving, walking, going about my day. Each week I look forward to learning from interesting guests, and hearing insights from solo episodes. It has opened my mind, and my heart, in so many ways. Almost 30 always 💘

Love love love!!
I found this show when I needed it the MOST - an ‘almost 30 year old’ just trying to figure things out. Constantly wondering what I SHOULD be doing and wondering why others seem to have it all figured out. This show made me feel less alone in my feelings, and allowed me to (start to) give myself grace for navigating this crazy uncertain time! TY LADIES!

Krista takes me to church
Krista please start a short devotional podcast I cannot get enough of you talking about god!! You have completely changed the way I think about god and religion, as someone who grew up with it forced on me, then rejected it, thank you so much for helping me rekindle my relationship to the divine!

Lindsey’s Mom Takes
I absolutely love Lindsey’s solo episodes. Her takes on motherhood and what she is looking to change this year resonate with me so much. I wish she had her own side podcast or youtube channel. I’m not into the other episodes as much, but Lindsey keeps me coming back to check the feed.

Pam Bondi’s BFFS
I used to love this pod in 2018-2019. Then the pandemic hit and Krista went full Qanon. Lindsey’s solos on motherhood sometimes still hit, but then she started posting and reposting about RFK. Is America Healthier, ladies? Is America safer? They are 2 white women refusing to take responsibility, refusing to see how damaging their pseudoscience word salads are. Zero stars.

Love love love everything about it
I’m obsessed with this podcast. Really love Krista’s philosophy and look at life, spirituality and God! I learn something new every time I listen. So uplifting

My question for these two:
If Krista and Lindsey voted for Trump in order for RFK to become the health secretary, which I strongly believe they did, my question for them is do they believe it was worth the corrosion of the entire country and the further destabilization of the world because of our foreign policy measures to vote him in? Everything Trump is doing he told us he would do and I will not let up on MAHA and your/their contribution to what we are witnessing today. You all can try to distance yourself from everyone in this administration but RFK but you all are 100% complicit for where we are and you all should take radial responsibility and ownership of that! Let history mark where you all stand today!

Almost over
Once (sometimes) interesting. Feels very old paradigm now. Hosts don’t seem connected to each other or the brand more hanging on as it’s a business. Don’t believe any of their product endorsements/doesn’t feel authentic. Be surprised if it lasts this year

Changed my life ✨
I used to LOVE them—I have no idea what happened in recent years but they are just anti vaxxer Charlie Kirk-supporting white women now.

Dangerous
This used to be an informative podcast but they went down a MAHA rabbit hole. Now they are anti vaccine.

Almost a fan
I have been almost a fan of this podcast for nearly ten years and genuinely appreciated its early mission—bringing thoughtful conversations and influential voices to topics around growth, wellness, and self-development. For a long time, Almost 30 felt expansive, curious, and responsible. Unfortunately, over the past few years, the direction of the podcast has become increasingly unsettling. What initially shifted my perspective was Krista’s public body transformation journey and the way it was later monetized. While I fully support conversations around health and exploring different approaches, the introduction and endorsement of peptides—substances that are not FDA-regulated, though I also acknowledge there are concern with the FDA as well—felt irresponsible. The way these products were discussed and promoted lacked sufficient nuance and caution, especially given the size and trust of their audience. Presenting these tools as accessible solutions without clearly emphasizing the medical risks crosses a line from personal sharing into unsafe influence. Most recently, the episode discussing vaccines was deeply concerning. The framing and tone felt politically charged and dismissive, and the medical information presented came across as misleading. As a parent, vaccine decisions already carry enormous emotional weight and anxiety. Listening to the hosts subtly shame or question families who choose to vaccinate left me feeling judged rather than supported. These are complex, deeply personal decisions that deserve evidence-based discussion—not implication or fear-based rhetoric. My frustration comes from the fact that Almost 30 holds a powerful platform. With that influence comes responsibility. Increasingly, the podcast feels less like open inquiry and more like unqualified medical opinion being delivered under the guise of “just asking questions.” When wellness content begins to blur into medical advice without appropriate expertise, transparency, or balance, it becomes harmful. I’m disappointed because I once trusted this space. I hope the hosts reflect on the impact of their messaging and the responsibility that comes with influencing such a large and loyal audience.

The constant agreeing “mmm” is awful 🙉

Let the Guests Speak
They have these great guests on the show, but the hosts speak more than the guests! They talk over the guests. It’s almost as if they bring on guest speakers so they can speak their own opinions about the topics that the guest came to speak about. I want to like this podcast so much, but every time I try, They make it so hard.

Long Time Listener Thoughts
I’ve been listening to the show religiously since 2020/2021 at a time when I needed a pick me up to grow spiritually, mentally, and emotionally. I loved it for years. There are many podcast episodes that brought me so much insight that I needed such as episodes with Mark Groves, Zach Busch, and even Lindsey and Krista’s solocasts. It saddens me to see where the show is today, it feels disconnected. Krista seems to only talk about not working, dating billionaires, and not liking short people just to name a few. It doesn’t feel authentic and grounded anymore just superficial. Much to love to you ladies since you’ve helped me so much though.

A little less goes a long way
Their content can be a hit or miss. Their content can once in a while be informative. Sometimes their “experts” are not really experts but just conspiracy theorists who happen to align with their beliefs. Expand outside your comfort zone ladies, there is truth there too!

Lost me at functional nutritionist
Please bring on a PhD nutritionist with robust research on food additives- they exist!

Misinformation
Please don’t take their health information seriously. It is trendy but lots of false information.

Trump/RFK
These episodes with their excitement of what’s coming with Trrump and RFK sure aren’t aging well. Measles outbreak, environmental and clean water legislation being removed, the national parks being affected. Sure looks like the girls need to expand their views beyond wellness and see the bigger picture. Between Krista’s narcissism and Lindsey blatantly not wanting to be involved anymore so she can focus on her family, the podcast should end post book tour. The girls are stunted at wellness.

Incredible women and fascinating topics
I love listening to K & L. This podcast and their content have given me so much hope and perspective since i started listening almost 2 years ago. They bring such interesting opinions to a variety of conversations and I believe they are sharing details with their audiences authentically with natural boundaries for their own sanity and protections. I do find that the guests are often repeated on other pods within the same realm (Sahara Rose, Real Foodology, etc) usually within a few days of one another which can feel repetitive but i think L&K do the best job at asking different questions and engaging the guests in a way that feels authentic and friendly. I’d love to hear more about what’s happening in current life (without getting too political) because i think a lot of people are looking for solice and real connection right. I think people look to A30 for refreshing perspectives to carry with them every day and sometimes you have to have the hard/uncomfy conversations (which these ladies are no strangers too) and i think listeners would appreciate the “reality check” and feel seen. Truly, thank you for this podcast and the work you’re doing. I’m forever grateful 🩷

A remarkable Podcast
Krista and Lindsey aren’t scared of any topic and are willing to dive so deep into any subject matter. Love to see this voice rising amidst this generation and so grateful to have them weigh in on all things health

Motivated to live my best life
I absolutely love Almost 30!! This podcast is the perfect mix of relatable conversations, personal growth stories, and humor! Each episode leaves me inspired and motivated to live my best life!! 10/10!

Lost a long time follower and listener.
Krista, your endorsement to RFK lost my follow and lost my listen. Yes food needs to change, but find someone else for your crusade, not this clout chaser…..

Best Episode!
The last catch up episode was so so so good!!! Laughed so hard, related to everything they talked about. I love the banter, brings reality and authenticity to spirituality and dating.

horrible
These ppl are a sign of the intellectual and moral decay of the times, the coming dark ages where thinking individuals are completely gone and society regresses Everything they do is so bumper sticker buzzword slogan copy/paste pale imitation of thought. It's ironically supposed to be counter culture but it's like a corporate designed thoughtless soulless version of counter culture.

Concerns
I used to LOVE this podcast and was such an avid listener! Lately, I’m feeling like it’s out of touch and not relatable to life and the world at hand. Would love the podcast to touch on bigger issues within the world- to paint the content being discussed in a broader context. That’s really important for me as a listener. I’m also concerned by how conservative some of the hosts’ perspectives have gotten.

Spreading conspiracies
I was a longtime listener and finally called it quits. I tried to ignore the conspiracy theory episodes but just can’t anymore. They try and describe these as “entertainment” or to widen perspectives, but that’s just code for them knowing what they are sharing is problematic and they decided to publish it anyways. Those can range anywhere from putting olive oil on your face as skin care to describing the US as an economic solace to The British Crown.

Fantastic podcast ❤️
Definitely listen if you’re almost 30 or if you want great advice around relationships, wellness, and everything in between. You feel like you’re listening to your best friends chat while also getting some great insights and information. 10/10

The pod
I appreciate the content and guests but I feel like the conversations in the beginning are a little drawn out. I understand a minute or two but 20 minutes feels like a little much.
🤟🏻✌🏼
Not for me
I could only listen to this for five minutes.

I'm an OG fan and listen every week. My all-time favorite pod ever. ❤️❤️

Beautiful episode
Much appreciated the astrological archetype episode, it will provide some clarity within my personal relationship and hopefully bridge better communication.

Landed on an episode interested in a guest…
…. And gave up after 35 minutes of listening to one host’s diatribe of how she’s feeling atm. I head the guest say one affirming word, and not another peep. Not even the other host seemed to able to get a word in edgewise.

Too much god talk
This podcast has some gems and some interesting content for sure. Not every episode will speak to you but I feel that I take something away from nearly every episode. Occasionally I skip ones that I have absolutely nothing in common with. With that said, and the reason for my three stars, is they talk about god more often it seems and have guests on who sometimes talk about god/bible based faith more than just spirituality. With that said, for me personally, it leaves a bad taste in my mouth whenever they talk about god because it feels a bit preachy. This is simply my personal review and others who have strong faith may really enjoy when they talk about god.

Good Conversations with Too Many Ads 🙃
I am tired of being sold to. I like the podcast & appreciate the hosts but there doesn’t need to be 6 minutes of ads 3x per episode…..

More Advertisements than Podcast
Yikes. First time visiting this podcast and I won’t return. Spent the first 40 minutes chatting and ads. Had about 15 minutes of the content I wanted to hear then had another interruption of ads. So annoying. Save your time and sanity, don’t listen to this one!

I just can’t?
I’ve listened to 3 episodes, all from various points in time of the show, to try to give it a real shot. I just don’t like it. The topics and guests seem like they’d be interesting but there is so much fluff-nonsense being said by the hosts that I lose focus almost constantly. I listen to podcasts all day at work and rarely have trouble focusing on them; this one clearly isn’t for me. I do think the commercials are far too long and far too often -honestly, this podcast feels very phony.

Truly lovely!
Deep, impactful, and poignant conversations. Krista and Lindsey share lots of wisdom, they’re so relatable, and I look forward to each new episode. ❤️

THE BEST POD🩷
This podcast is my go-to. I seriously can’t listen to any other one without pausing and going back to Almost 30 to try to find an unplayed episode. These women really take their role seriously & make such relatable content. Love you girls!!!!

I always skip the first 15-20 min
The topics and people they interview = 5 stars. The intros = 2 stars. They also seems drawn out too long, are not always necessary or relevant and often gets boring.

Not as good as it used to be
I’ll start by saying that I’ve been a big fan of this podcast and I really do love Krista and Lindsey, they’ve had some really powerful interviews and conversations. However, I feel like the podcast has gone down hill recently - they rarely interview together anymore, less interesting guests, shorter boring interviews with so many ads, sometimes only 1 ep/week, Krista hijacking the interviews to talk about herself (I say that with love, I really do like her and think she’s smart and funny). Also for some reason, they never fail to mention they were one of the first podcasts in the space, I just don’t see how that’s important at this point, it comes off insecure. Anyway, probably not for me anymore!

Relatable, Magical, Kismet
I happened to find the Almost 30 Podcast when my daughter was a newborn, during the lockdown, as a single mom with little support. Krista and Lindsey became my podcast BFFs when I felt alone and my entire being had shifted into this new person (a mom). Almost 3 years later I’m still a huge fan and love grabbing a matcha and going on a walk with two of my favorite podcast humans in my headphones. The episodes are completely relatable and I learn a ton. This show is a pivotal aspect of my manifestation process as Krista and Lindsey and their guests are amazing expanders! So grateful and couldn’t recommend this podcast more!

Feels like every episode is an advertisement
I used to love this podcast, and sometimes still do, it’s helped me a lot with my self development and I’ve learned about a lot of new topics wouldn’t have otherwise. Some of the guests are so inspiring and I do like listening to Krista and Lindsay’s journeys. BUT it feels like every episode is filled with sneaky consumerism. Not even the ads, which I understand to fund the show. It’s more than every guest launched newest life changing supplement or is selling an expensive course. I find it hard to trust K + L’s recommendations when it seems unrealistic that they actually take and love all these supplements. I often feel a lot of pressure to buy things after listening to the podcast, especially if I’m not feeling great and want to feel better. It makes me question the authenticity of the advice and why they bring who they do on the show. Especially with it being a spiritual podcast, I come here learn and improve myself, not to fall into influencer culture and overconsumption. I also wish they vetted their guests more, for example, I did a quick search of Dr. Taz after listening to her episode and she has some really awful reviews from her patients, it’s just concerning because that was so easy to find on Google.
