You two light up my day, I listen while i’m at work alone and it makes me feel like I’m hanging with friends. Love you guys thanks for sharing

It isn’t Kelly can’t read it’s that she’s drinking and slurring her speech.. if you are doing a podcast stop the drinking during it! It’s so obvious!!

This pod is awesome I am 11 and love dance moms this is perfect

John corella that show put Kelly through hell when it refused to offer the video for proof Abbey was the aggressor in that altercation

The podcasts are long so I like the space out my listening and every time I come back it glitches and I have to find where I left off. It only happens on this podcast so not sure if it’s due to the video in the background or whatever program they use but please fix this!!

I have been listening to this podcast for a week now and I have been loving it. I love to watch dance moms and after listening to this show, I want to rewatch dance moms. This as to be the best podcast I ever listened to and this podcast has been helping me for forgetting my problems and listening to how addy did to Christi and Kelly, it just help to forget.

I love this podcast, it makes me laugh out loud all the time. This is my favorite podcast and I listen to it every day. If you love dance moms check this out.If they come to your city go see them, it’s totally worth it.

I love this podcast. I find myself laughing out loud when listening

The pod used to be super enjoyable and fun to listen to but recently, Christi and Kelly have added a bunch of unnecessary extras in an attempt to squeeze a little more money out of the show and it’s made it unlistenable. When Christi and Kelly started pointing out every time, Abby licked her lips just to have a way to spill the time which grosses me out completely, and ruins the enjoyment of the podcast, not to mention, they insisted upon adding new episodes and new video formats that regularly do not work when they didn’t even really have a good grasp on the stuff they were already doing.

Ever since dance moms came out they were my favorite moms in the cast. And I enjoy hearing behind the scenes antics.

I just have a question for you, Christie how heartbreaking was it in this episode where it was like the seven dwarfs dance thing and Kendall was like I’m slouchy I’m stretchy. I’m snobby. I’m sassy and then Kloe was just like holding up a big smile that was heartbreaking for me and I’m not even her mom. I just have a question for you so yeah.

I really like your podcast especially because you guys could give the behind the scenes of the episodes you were on. The ones you weren’t on you had the producers note which was really nice but now that you don’t have those, I think it would be beneficial to bring on one or more of the moms that were actually there so they can give us all the behind-the-scenes and their take on it because at this point you’re just recapping a show that you weren’t on which is kind of bizarre.

Hi Christi and Kelly I wanted to say that I love your podcast and i stopped watching the show when Kelly left because the show sucked without Kelly and Christi but once Kelly left then Christi left then she was alone and the show got stale (no shade to the other moms)

You guys are probably nice people, but I find this podcast, very annoying and trivial.

I’ve been a BTTB listener & Patreon subscriber since the first year of the show. Huge fan of both hosts. Ever since the switch to video podcasts, I’ve been noticing an influx of issues. From captions no longer being time synced to the feed glitching out because of the video playing in the background. The only upside is that this update has made the 30+ minute talk-about-nothing intros much shorter. Hopeful for a fix.

i love back to the barre. i love the bts stories, the banter that kelly and christi have, and how funny this podcast is! christi and kelly are my favorite moms on dance moms, and i was so happy that i found this podcast! i love listening to this podcast in the car to swim practice, before bed, or while doing chores. again, it’s a really good podcast.

Really like the podcast

I love dance moms and as a dancer i can realate to all the dance things and I wish that you two were my fun aunts I would have so much with you to. I listen to you to go to bed and I feel so happy to hear your voice before I sleep so I can be happy in my dreams. I love you guys so much I hope it goes on foreve. But I have a question when it get to the other episodes when you weren’t there what will you do? Bye aunties

I think talking about the kids is a step too far even if they’re not kids anymore. Leave Nia alone.

Kelly reading is painful. It would be incredibly helpful if Kelly would review script first.

Exactly that. Ever since getting mics the sound is awful. I might not even make it through this current episode (4/13/26) because of the bad audio quality

These two have me laughing out loud in the office frequently. They have built up such a good rapport over the years and it’s such a pleasure to listen

I’ve been a dance mom’s fan until the Hylands and Chloe left. I’ve also always been a huge Christi and Kelly fan and love the podcast with all the field notes and behind the scenes info! I’ve been listening to this podcast since they’ve started and I’m a little concerned about Kelly’s coughing as she drinks. I’m a speech-language pathologist and part of my scope of practice is swallowing. Sometimes with strokes, intensive chemotherapy and radiation, etc people can develop dysphagia, which essentially means thin liquids are going into your lungs. One of the key signs is coughing when drinking and the wet/crackling vocal quality immediately after. I’ve been putting off saying something because I don’t want to invade on your personal life, and it’s none of my business. But this can lead to serious pneumonia, so please mention the coughing when drinking to your doctor, you may need a swallow study!

I love this podcast but I miss the old segments and the format the OG episodes had.

Which one of you are filing your nails during the February 27, 2026 mini episode? 💀

Ladies. You wonder why you run out of time recapping and need to do a part two. You spend the first 15 minutes just talking about random things and then ads for another 10 mins. That is 25 minutes. It’s frustrating. Why are we talking about building snow shovels and shoveling snow. Talk about that stuff on your time. I miss the old format. Thanking patreons, what your drinking and recap. Christy you just ramble on about anything and everything. You jump around from one topic to the next. Please get to the recapping and save the chatter for the after party and Christy stop shading Kelly it’s getting old.

I watch dance moms and you both are my favorite moms from the show. I have a question about Melissa did she really threatened to sue all of the moms or was that just a stage thing?

I thought they sounded bitter just because they were recapping something that could be traumatic, but after listening to the traitors recap, it’s obvious that they either hate life or love complaining. Whenever they’re not complaining, the show is actually great! Unfortunately most of the show is ads, complaining, and making every situation about them and their daughters. The other small percentage can be really fun if you can sit through the rest.

I love this so much whenever I watch this it’s so amazing!!!

Y’all are funny af. I be drivin or at the gym jus laughin

It would be nice if Christie would stop interrupting Kelly, especially when it’s Kelly’s turn to read, she doesn’t stop talking! Also, if she could stop talking like she’s a 15 year old trying to keep up with the trendy words they’re using 🙄.

Amazing! I get so excited to watch a new episode every Monday.

Your whole premise is talking about everyone on the show but get ticked someone didn’t ask permission to write a book? That’s the definition of hypocrisy.

Christi u are the best mother in the show always caring for Chloe

I JUST started rewatching DM Season 5 last week, and can I just say, I CANNOT wait to hear what Christi and Kelly have to say about the bizarre madness about to happen in these next few episodes! Ladies … I just assumed you had known all the madness that occurred after you guys left, but … just wait. Following the heaviness and emotions (rightly so) of seasons 3/4, I am so looking forward to your reactions to ALM’s behavior in these upcoming episodes. Let’s just say, the empathy and compassion she showed for Nia’s family situation will soon be in the rearview mirror with no chance of return! Thanks for entertaining us, Christi and Kelly! Hope to see you in Philly!!

I listen to this pretty much everyday . I love to listen to you guys you’re so funny ! The behind the scenes is really interesting.

My ultimate comfort podcast- I always turn them on when I have a stressful drive and replay old episodes.

I love this show so much, but Christi can not talk about Chloe or their experiences without Kelly interrupting and comparing it to her own with Brooke and Paige. It’s so valid to also try and relate but it feels like she’s not even acknowledging or giving that space. I think she’s trying to relate but it comes off as her complaining that her experience was worse. And I just don’t think that’s fair.

I have listened to every episode since day one, but I can no longer support this show. In the past, I really felt like they were recapping the show and giving the behind the scenes but now it feels like a “let’s prove everyone wrong”. The way the talk about the kids and allow guest to talk about this is awful. I get they are hurt but at the end of the day..they were children being influenced by adults. I really draw the line at the Nia comments. These two will NEVER understand what the show was like for a black woman and girl. Regardless of how bad their kid was treated, Nia and Holly always had a different level because they were fighting prejudice and racism. For them to dismiss her book was extremely hypocritical. They sit on this podcast every week talking bad about everyone yet I have never heard them ask for permission. Shame on them for bad pressing Nia book before it even hit the shelves. This show has turned into two bitter ladies who are still living in the past. Grow up and move on.

I really enjoy listening to this show but that ads are insufferable. I can’t listen to this while doing dishes or driving because it feels like every few minutes I have to fast forward through 5-10 minutes worth of ads at a time. It feels incredibly greedy of the hosts to have that many ads

It’s super understandable that both of your exits from the show were emotionally charged periods of your lives but it’s super strange that you guys tend to try and one-up each other about who was hurt the most, who was treated worse, and who’s kids have suffered the most. Of course we could never understand all of this fully but I hope you can someday figure out how to use this trauma as a way to build deeper relationships with each other. I hope that therapy will help to heal you both.

Kelly really is a dingbat and Christi was so evil on the show. Don’t understand how they are so loved by the fanbase

This show is ok. But I can't handle all the ads.

I love this show!!! Get well Kelly!!! Give me a shout out pls!! Watch this! Oh and could you visit Milwaukee, Wisconsin

I love this show. I enjoy hearing you guys just chat about your lives. It feels like catching up with old friends. I can relate to a lot of the topics. Please don’t stop sharing about your lives. I also really like the behind the scenes stuff regarding the dance moms episodes.

Made me kinda made, but I’m 13 so….

I genuinely love this podcast. It is a great thing to fall asleep to except for the ads. The ads are quite loud and obnoxious, and it’s hard to sleep too, and I would quite like it. If you did not talk about random stuff that does not have to do with the show so much at the beginning Because that is not always what the podcast is about otherwise I would love to see you guys make more episodes. I acknowledge that the producers may have told you to say stuff, but I would like you guys to take responsibility for your accent on the show and apologize sometimes as I know you do sometimes otherwise I absolutely love this podcast and it is great

with peace and love 🤍 you guys sometimes spend 30 minutes talking about nothing in the beginning of many episodes

Kelly is great. However, I am so over Christi making political comments.

I am so happy that you guys finally get to share your stories and your truths to the world. This podcast really opens my eyes to how produced reality tv is and how horrible your environment and Abby was. Now when I watch the show I keep an open mind on what might’ve actually been happening behind the scenes. The ads can be al lot sometimes and sometimes go on for 10 minutes but I understand that you guys don’t receive any money from lifetime anymore despite being on your hit reality show that’s still relevant today. Please keep the content going, Kelly I hope you are well, and I’m thankful that you guys relive these moments just to give us content! Thank you! 🩷
