The Unmentionables Podcast
We're Evan and Melissa. We cover the topics you’re not supposed to talk about at dinner. Politics, religion, sex, offensive humor, awkward situations, mental health, and parenting opinions are all on the table. What’s not on the table is a woke view of the world. We say what most people think but are afraid to say and we have a great time sharing our love and discussions with you. We’ll show you how to have a conversation again and how to disagree with love and respect for one another.
