  • WTF Is Babbling's With A Twentysomething?!

    Don't worry Babbling's isn't just another podcast to add to the over saturation. Hosted by Ali (she/her) Babbling's is really an audio diary and video if you watch on spotify or youtube, documenting Ali's life and experiences. Ali is not a guru or a boss babe or a "that girl". We're not here for self help or to give you all the answers. Honestly don't even take Ali's advice. Really we're hear to share, be vulnerable, and navigate life along side each other.


    Follow along on the raw journey that everyone goes through when they're a twentysomething.

About babblings

From the publisher's feed

babblings, formerly known as "Babblings of a Twentysomething" is a podcast hosted by Ali (she/her) covering all the woes that come with being a twentysomething like dating, friendships, and living alone. But it's more than just another twentysomething spouting about life, babblings is dedicated to bringing you more extensive topics like current events, hot takes on pop culture, and breaking down large scale societal norms that are actually eating away at our autonomy and creativity. Ali's here to share the nuggets of wisdom she honestly wished she didn't have, so hopefully we can learn our lessons together.
