Married for Good

It’s easy to find blogs and books on marriage, but it’s not often that you get to peek in on a candid conversation between women who have been married to their husbands for decades. In this week’s episode of "The Deep Dish" podcast, join Courtney Doctor, Melissa Kruger, Vanessa Hawkins, and Jen Wilkin as they discuss surprises in marriage, strategies for getting through the ups and downs of married life, and how to sift out the bad marriage advice from the good.
