Introducing The We Do Not Care Club Podcast with Melani Sanders

Welcome to The We Do Not Care Club Podcast hosted by Melani Sanders, content creator, founding member of the WDNC, and New York Times bestselling author of The Official We Do Not Care Club Handbook. What started as Melani’s hilarious and all-too-true social media declaration that she simply did not care much anymore has become a global movement centered on sisterhood, laughter, honesty, and understanding that we are not alone, and we are enough. From menopause to marriage, motherhood, sex, relationships, changing bodies, mental health, work, money, food, and the everyday chaos of midlife, no topic is off-limits.

  Her videos are so hilarious. I mean, I can't tell you how many you and I have shared. I'm so excited about this podcast.

• 0:35Speaker 00

  Every week, she is holding these candid, she calls them "chapter" meetings, where she talks about marriage, changing bodies, hormones, and also, my favorite thing, where you just say no without apologizing. That's the "we do not care." We do not care to do that.

  And now, here's a little more from Melanie.

• 1:20Speaker 02

  Attention all new and existing members of the W D N C. I'm Melanie Sanders, and this is the We Do Not Care Club podcast. Let's get in the chit-chat. Let's run our mouth. We got to midlife and realized, we just simply do not care much anymore. I laid in the bed as long as I wanted to. I had ice cream for dinner. I don't care. About wearing a good bra, or having a good attitude.

• 1:43Speaker 03

  I just said, "F*** it." It was so empowering. I felt beautiful. I felt strong. I felt free.

• 1:49Speaker 02

  I said, "Girl, stop. Just stop. Stop, stop. You are at capacity. Chill out."

• 1:58Speaker 02

  Now, we gotta help each other make sense of hot flashes, dry c***. Do you still find me attractive?

• 2:05Speaker 04

  Of course.

• 2:05Speaker 02

  Why you start laughing? I'm gonna talk about sex for a second. We're raw dogging life. How y'all c*** looking? It's there. Trifling families, food, money.

• 2:16Speaker 05

  Don't think about, "Well, one day when you get money, you could do this." No, just bring it and do it.

• 2:20Speaker 02

  Brain fog. I can't remember anything. I forgot the question.

• 2:26Speaker 02

  And yes, bat wings. I would love to just wake up one day and say, "You know what? I'm gonna wear this tank top."

• 2:32Speaker 06

  Let's do it. Nobody's thinking about your arms more than you are.

• 2:39Speaker 02

  We are not alone, and we will be heard.

• 2:42Speaker 05

  Well, I'll tell you the best advice I can give you.

• 2:44Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 2:45Speaker 05

  And if you promise to do it.

• 2:46Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 2:48Speaker 05

  Breathe. You didn't do it.

• 2:50Speaker 02

  I'm breathing.

• 2:51Speaker 05

  No, no, no.

• 2:52Speaker 02

  Listen to the We Do Not Care Club podcast with me, Melanie Sanders, wherever you get your podcasts. And be sure to follow, so you'll never miss an episode. I've never milked a cow, and I'm scared.

• 3:04Speaker 01

  Are you?

• 3:05Speaker 02

  I'm doing a lot of stuff scared now.
