I woke up Nov. 1st from a nightmare that seemed specifically concocted to entice me to worry and fear. Woke up prayed and read 1 Corinthians 1:13. Still couldn’t sleep and then thought to myself “Well I haven’t had a chance to listen to the new ‘What Have You’ podcast yet” It’s always encouraging and enjoyable to listen to this podcast. This time specifically it was crazy how God was using it to help me not be anxious and worried about my dream. They literally mentioned not giving into to fretful thoughts from dreams and 1 Corinthians 1:13. It was crazy. Life’s been hard lately and I’ve been in the battle of taking every thought captive. I really appreciate Becca and Rachel for sharing how they manage life storms. It’s helped me to understand that this is just how the Christian life goes. Turn your eyes upon Jesus is the resounding theme of this podcast.

Love this podcast!! I, personally, have adopted the terms “swizzle” “tinctures”, “hither and thither”, and “tude” to my vernacular. Thanks for the dose of real talk and humor!

3 podcasts back to back?! What a treat for my ears. I love listening to the practical advice these ladies give. They’re also funny, I feel like I’m in the back seat of the car eavesdropping on friends.

Bekah and Rachel make me laugh out loud in nearly every episode. I don’t know much about Canon, but popular opinion says that it advocates for the oppression of women. If that’s true, these delightful gals don’t seem to know it. Way to go, ladies, for showing the world the beauty, joy, and freedom of womanhood as God intended. 😉

I love this podcast because it is helpful and encouraging while not feeling too preachy... it feels like my mom and her sister on the phone and I'm just listening. It can get a little ramble at times, but that makes it all feel more natural and genuine. Many times I am doubled over laughing right along with them!

I have only just recently found this podcast and for the most part I do enjoy it- but the one critique I do have is that I find I’m frustrated with the amount of times Rachel interrupts Bekah (sorry if spelled wrong). I find it hard to listen to as I want to hear what Bekah is saying but then she’s repeatedly interrupted and cut off. And it’s not just one or two episodes I’ve listened to. I went thru the other reviews and found a couple others saying the same thing. I enjoy what they speak about but am often flustered and want to say “let her finish”! as if what Rachel has to say is more important and she takes over…

So happy to have a new episode pop in my feed!

I just absolutely love listening to them chat. There’s a lot of practical application things, but I vent when there aren’t the things they talk about are great food for thought. I started back at episode one and have really enjoyed the progress they’ve made at things and hearing about their families grow up!

For years, a weekly staple for me on my walks. Godly wisdom, mothering advice, redirecting the spiritual thoughts I had. Really challenging me. Certainly within the last year it has just become rambling, interrupted and disorganized. It’s a challenge to listen to as it is no longer a majority spiritual content that may exist for 12 minutes amongst some other drive-through ordering, looking at a flower, stories that go on longer than the listener can relate to. I’m sad this is the case because I have learned so much from these women in the last six years. Maybe a formal break is needed for them so that content can be less chaotic. I think establishing 2x/month formally would at least let them get some order to their wandering thoughts.

Me scrolling thru these reviews and seeing everyone talk abt being a mother and a wife Me:15 Great podcast 🫡👍

WHY was my gateway drug to Canon and Doug Wilson. The way the sisters talk about being a wife and mother was totally foreign to me, and I grew up in a Christian home! My whole family is incredibly grateful for the work Canon is doing.

Yes. I started all the way back at episode 1. I have listened to a few episodes a day for about 2 months maybe. These women are my besties without even knowing who I am. I don’t have any Godly women in my life around my age and so this podcast has been such a blessing. Rachel and Bekah have a beautiful sister friendship and its been a joy to listen to them. I have learned a lot! I now stop and repent and make my wrongs right on the spot, their sharing on the self analysis on sin was convicting. I listened as they shared their brothers diagnosis and had him on. I listened as they sat at their parents table cracking up as Doug listened near by and Nancy chimed in. I haven’t picked Bekahs or Rachels side about picking up the apples but I have been thinking about it. I have laughed with them so much. I have been convicted at times, I have implemented some of their advice at times and felt such overwhelming emotion during episodes like wow wow wow. I haven’t been here since the beginning but I am just all caught up now. (My husband thought it was insane to start at the very beginning but I didn’t wanna miss anything and I am glad I didn’t!) These women are real and raw and honest and they love the Lord and they are great wives and mothers and this podcast is a blessing. I hope one day to meet them at Grace Agenda. Lord willing. In the meantime, I will continue to listen in and pretend I’m in the backseat while they chat. Thank you ladies!

I’ll be honest, I thought it was totally normal to leave your normal clothes on while playing dress up. I was kind of appalled when I heard that people change in front of their friends.

I find this podcast edifying in my calling as a Christian woman/wife/mother. I usually like deep dives into meaningful content, but lately I just can’t metabolize lengthy, weighty lectures the way I used to. I’m primarily trying to figure out how to keep the gears oiled and ticking while my family life is in full motion instead of trying to halt everything in my life before I begin to address the problems. What I need in this season is a grounding point for lighthearted, normal engagement with daily life ups and downs. I appreciate the interposition of educated/ intelligent insights in relation to ordinary things. I appreciate the sister banter and laughter. It has a weaving and wandering feel. If you’re looking for linear, laid-out bullet points of carefully curated content…this isn’t it. But I feel like I’m grateful to have an eaves-dropping window on two sisters in Christ with whom I feel a spirit of kinship in the trenches.

A must listen to on my podcast playlist. My daughter and I love to listen together and we laugh right along with y’all. Continue speaking truth and keep those hot tips coming!

This is my go-to listen when kids go to bed and husband is still working. It has been convicting and encouraging to listen to while continuing to work in the home after kids are down. Makes the work fun! And yes Bekah and Rachel, I always follow y’all on your random trains of thought and never realize until y’all point it out how off topic it is. I’m always laughing with y’all.

I have always wanted to go through the archive and listen to a bunch of episodes of this show but there are vague titles shooting for cleverness couple with something between minimal and no description. You would get a lot more downloads (even if only from me) if you would add quality episode descriptions. Gave 5 stars anyway to support you guys.

I’m 34 and this is such a calming podcast for me. I laugh and I think deeper. So blessed by these ladies filling my chore times or quiet times. As a mom I also do take their advice to heart. Thankful for them both!

These sisters love God and put their faith & family first. They share Truth (from a car!) and bring a smile to my heart with every episode. They impart wisdom and have a great dynamic together! And they’ll make you laugh, yes please!!

My kids have gotten accustomed to me sharing your funny stories and saying they were from my friends Rachel and Rebekah ;) I have learned so much from this podcast- one of the most important being to seek to laugh at all the crazy things that happen in life and make sure I’m applying my biblical worldview to my actual day in and day out life. Merry Christmas to you both!

Please stop interrupting Rebekah!

My favorite familiar strangers in the world. Godly encouragement that doesn’t pull punches and points you to the word of God

So so good. Thank you saying the hard things but right things.

I love this podcast! At almost 60 with 9 mostly grown children and going on 24 grandchildren, I may be a bit out of the target age range, but it’s always good for a laugh, and some serious thought! I love the last episode on Heirlooms- very relevant wisdom. ❤️ Minnie Batty

Mrs. Bekah!!! Pleeeease write a book called Dancing Backwards, based on all your amazing thoughts on education for Christian, God-fearing women!!!! I would buy twenty to give to all my teenage friends!!!:)

Thank you so much for sharing your lives, wisdom, and solid Biblical advice for women, wives and mothers! It has truly been an encouragement for me! You ladies are so blessed to have been raised in godly homes, and the blessed generational impact of that! 💛

I love your podcast SO much! The hard core truth and the great humor. The last episode “laugh” totally hit it for me.

This podcast makes you feel like you are apart of this sweet sisterhood. They share so much wisdom in such a real and practical way. One moment I am laughing out loud and the next crying and repenting for my stubborn, selfish heart. If you are a wife, mother, and/or friend who is trying to live a life that glorifies God - this is a great podcast! Thank you Bekah and Rachel!

I listen to this show while I do housework. I love it! Laughter, common sense, and a lot of truth. Thank you both for your contributions to the Christian household.

A Lone Island of Sanity that is! Thanks for being so real and willing to shoot straight from the hip. I don’t get to listen to your podcast that often, but you’ve been a huge blessing to me through blessing my wife! Thanks for being a de-saturation from the day, a Biblical pressure release. Thanks for just being real and Spirit filled. Here’s a jolly huzzah for “What Have You”!

Great podcast! One gentle recommendation - your sweet boy is not a “Down’s baby.” We don’t call someone with cancer a “Cancer boy.” He has Down Syndrome. That’s it. ❤️

This has been such an encouragement to listen through, lifts a momma’s heart! Thank you for sharing your life and thoughts with us women out the big world! ☺️

I have listened to every episode of WHY. I used to delight in it every week, would take notes, and would grow in my conviction from the good conversations and tips. But over the past two years, it has devolved into mostly just two sisters catching up briefly on their very busy lives. There is never a theme or focus, unless they are criticizing someone else’s tastes in aesthetics. I used to love this show, but it has become a waste of time. Maybe I’ll try again in a year or two. I wish they’d go back to having a theme with some bullet points we can follow! But, by their own admission, they can hardly remember to record, let alone put together episode content.

I have listened to every one of the Wilson sister’s WHY podcasts, and am starting to wonder why. They have received some justifiable criticism in the past for being snarky, and though they made strides in correcting the issue, they keep falling into laughing condescension of others. They forget their audience is outside of the car. Frankly, if my sisters at church were joking so haughtily at another’s expense as Bekah and Rachel have in the last several episodes, I would walk away. There is nothing winsome for me to grow by or worth recommending others to tune in to. I’ve tried to overlook it, because I know they laugh at their own silliness and foibles, and there are some sins and ways of thinking that are best called out by mockery- but this ain’t it girls. I’ve benefited greatly from many of their conversations & will give them a try in the future. Maybe at some point they will actually have more time to consider what words they put out for a global audience beyond the SUV. I feel they have much to offer and hope they can do so with grace & wisdom.

I was excited to find this podcast after reading some of Rachel’s books and loving her no none sense approach to parenting. But my oh my this podcast was severely disappointing and terribly immature. These women basically talk about the life choices of other moms/women/people on the internet and hysterically laugh at any decision that isn’t the exact one they would have made. They feel like the mean girls from high school. Granted I only listened to maybe 6 episodes, but I honestly couldn’t take any more.

I love listening to your gal’s podcast! It is so inspiring and always makes me laugh! Thank you for ministering to my generation! You bless so many! Keep up the good work! ❤️

I love this podcast! I am amazed every episode how much I learn from them. I always leave thinking how I would just love to be their friend. I cannot express the joy that I get from hearing about their thoughts on how to be a Godly mother and wife should be!

Podcast that helps women realize what true femininity is according to the scriptures. I really appreciate you two taking time out of your busy schedules to share a little bit of what you’re thinking and going through! It has been so encouraging to me!

Last week you talked about some meal practice that you do every Monday could you list those recipes for combination you made in the comments? I would love to recreate the salads but you kept going back and forth so much it was hard to follow who made what.

This podcast has been a huge blessing in my walk with Christ! Thank you Bekah and Rachel for glorifying God in all that you do, it does not go unnoticed.

Biblical truth, common sense, and belly laughs! I appreciate this podcast so much. Feels like sitting in with friends. My husband and kids can always tell when I’m listening to this podcast in my earbuds because of how often I laugh out loud! Thanks, ladies!

I started listening to What Have You more than two years ago. An elder of my church and close family friend shared the Sabbath episode with me to get my thoughts on us doing a combined weekly Sabbath meal. I fell in love with the concept and we started soon after and have been having regular for more than 2 years now. Soon after listening to that episode I caught up on all of them and now look forward to new ones. These ladies speak truth and do so unashamedly. We need more unapologetic Biblical truth in this world right now. They don’t pull any punches or beat around the bush. They seek to glorify the Lord in this podcast and it shows. You can tell they just want to share ways in which every women should be focusing on glorifying God in every part of our lives. Usually we just need to get a grip on our emotions and do the hard things we are called in scripture to do, without pitching a sin fit. Every Christian woman of every age should listen to this. I love that they constantly encourage women to get in the word, apply it to your life, die to yourself daily, glorify God, and bless others.

I look forward to this podcast every week. I often laugh out loud but also come away challenged and encouraged to love the Lord more, use my brain as a woman for God’s glory, and treasure God’s Word more than my emotions. I’m a young professional in the corporate world. But this podcast reminds me that I am a woman. Not just through the recipe sharing and cleaning tips (which are definitely fun!) but through the way Rachel and Bekah give a biblical perspective on what it means to think, feel, and act in a biblically feminine way.

I love your podcast I’m so thankful you ladies do this to impart biblical wisdom to other woman! I just wanted to say the bee episode titled Jordan is actually the content of the episode called ladylike. I don’t know if that’s a mess up on my phone only or if it uploaded wrong. I just don’t wanna miss an episode 😆 so I wanted to let you know

Enjoy this podcast and appreciate this episode mentioning athletics! I was always an athlete and it is so important to raise my daughter to be a ladylike athlete!

Look forward to listening every week, When they are posted! ☺️ Started listening during the Pandemic and I’ve listen to almost all the seasons. These ladies help me keep my house clean, get through the long parent pick up lines, and did I say keeping my house cleaned. 🤣🤣 While I don’t agree with everything ( gray areas ) I think their teaching, theology and doctrine shared is really good! Although they are so silly, just them silently laughing about so many things always makes me laugh. I love the tips and encouragement to me as a woman, wife, mom and Christian. I always walk away with a new outlook on something, how I can be better for the Lord and my family. Thank you ladies for taking time weekly from your families to share hot tips with us.

Keep ‘em coming ladies.

I love listening to this, I can’t wait until each episode pops up! I recommend it heartily and find it a great encouragement! And it always makes me laugh.

This is a great podcast! I love the practical tips based on sound, Biblical principles!! Keep it up, ladies!! Rachel needs to temper her enthusiasm to speak by not interrupting Bekah so much. 🙈❤️ Other than that...Doug Wilson has sort of backed away from the federal vision stuff so I’m not sure why all the continued criticism on that...

Two things that draw me back to What Have You is the contagious laughter between Bekah and Rachel and their sound theology. Love listening to women who let the Word of God shape every aspect of their lives. Rachel interrupts Bekah A LOT and I think it’s sweet Bekah isn’t annoyed by it but I am sometimes frustrated that Bekah didn’t get her complete thought out. God has blessed her with a lot of wisdom and I would prefer to hear her whole sentence and then Rachel can say her equally wonderful piece.
