Episode 21—
In today’s episode, Kim sits down with one of her very best friends of nearly two decades — the unstoppable, unfiltered, Energizer-bunny-in-human-form… Shelly.
If you’ve ever wondered who’s responsible for Mom’s Favorite existing, look no further. Shelly is the original brain behind the podcast, the woman who pitched it, pushed it, and pretty much willed it into existence. She and her sister run the production company behind the show, which basically makes her the Podcast Godfather — the Podfather — minus the crime family, plus a lot more coffee.
Kim and Shelly dive into:
✨ Their 18-year friendship and its most iconic moments
✨ Their bond as autism moms and how that shaped their sisterhood
✨ Shelly’s endless energy and giver-of-all-givers personality
✨ How Mom’s Favorite actually came to be
✨ Why everyone needs a Shelly in their life
This episode is equal parts heart, laughter, chaos, and pure best-friend magic. If you love stories about lifelong friendships and the women behind the scenes making big things happen — this one’s for you.
