Blur and Bubblegum

Trauma and Laughs is a podcast that will cover a wide variety of topics, ranging from 90s movie & shows, to witchcraft, true crime and music. We are parents to Autistic and ADHD children. Amanda and River really want to shed light on hard topics with this podcast. We are sisters who live about 6000 miles away from each other (Melanie lives in California and Amanda lives in The Netherlands), but we keep contact every day and always have things to discuss and talk about. We decided this would be a fun and unique way to strengthen our bond as well as create comradery between ourselves and others who have similar experiences, from trauma to fun, laughing along the way!
