I listened to the Craigslist’s episode on the way home and was so impressed by Craig’s openness to share about his growth to becoming a better person. Great episode!

We were driving back from Vermont today and listened to every episode of lost in jersey. Rob described it as an introvert’s dream – it’s like being at a fascinating dinner party. Congrats to you, Rachel, and all your guests. 😘 👏

I thought the funniest thing you said was that you time how long it takes you to get home from the city, let people know, and that you are in your jammies. I truly laughed out loud on that one. It is hard to believe this is your first podcast. Stay the same, don’t change.

ABOUT LIJ

Lost in Jersey was created by Janette Afsharian and Rachel Martens, two NYC expats who traded their shoebox apartments for the Garden State. Like many newcomers, they initially felt figuratively and literally “Lost in Jersey” but have since embraced New Jersey as their home sweet home. They created the podcast to share the stories of the incredible people connected to the great Garden State.
