Today we're taking a rest from all the craziness in the news to celebrate 500 episodes of Relatable! We start off by telling the story of how Allie got started in media in the first place, all the way back in 2015 (0:00). Then, we play some of your voicemails that were sent to us, to hear about what Relatable has meant to y'all and how the show has changed your mind on some topics (or not) (25:48). We also meet the behind-the-scenes team of Beth, Dillon, and Mark, who produce, edit, and direct the show (47:39). Lastly, we have some very special "would you rathers" from some of our previous guests (58:00).
