Welcome to The Dependa Podcast! The host Kimberly Garner is a well-seasoned dependa who has been married to a soldier for almost 20 years. She and her husband have 3 wonderful children. While the kids were young, Kimberly was a full time dependa staying home eating bon bons and spending her husband’s money on fancy cups and home decor. Now that the kids are older, Kim has been working as a part-time time photographer, full time Realtor and podcast host. She hopes to bring some lighthearted discussions about all things military life to this podcast. If you are looking to listen to a podcast that doesn’t take itself too seriously and has a good chance of going completely off the rails, you have come to the right place. Think Army Wives pages but in podcast form. Buckle up dependas! It’s going to be a good time!

Kim asked Kalyn to come back to discuss the Netflix documentary called Maternal Instincts. Kim wanted to do this because after the last podcast episode went live they both received several messages encouraging them to watch the documentary. They did just that and now they come back together to discuss! If you haven't watched the documentary, just be aware this whole episode is full of spoilers!

Back in February Kim got herself into some internet controversy due to her anonymous(or so she thought) comments about another local photographer. Drama ensued and Kim had to take a step back from social media. The dust has settled and now she is ready to her side of the story along with why she felt compelled to say what she said. Buckle up Dependas! This one is all over the place!
Trigger warning: This episode includes discussion of miscarriage and rape. The conversation centers on someone we’ve observed posting in ways that felt attention-seeking to us; we’re not trying to diminish anyone’s loss or blame survivors.

Kimberly sat down with a special guest to chat about surviving and repairing her marriage after infidelity. She is super open and honest during this almost 3 hour chat. Through her TikTok account and other social media she hopes to provide a safe place for those who have or are currently struggling with similar issues. This episode is definitely a wild ride but so worth the listen!
This is a throw back episode that has been re-posted in order to remove the guests name. That is why it will sound familiar.

Well, as usual Kim has been slacking on recording and uploading podcast episodes but she recently met a willing victim so she jumped at the chance to have her on. Meet Ellie, new-ish Army wife, softball coach, mom and chatty Cathy. Kim only says, "What was I talking about?" like 7 times so pretty par for the course on The Dependa Podcast.

This episode covers a wide range of topics(shocker) including how Kim sends voice clips to strangers, Karyann's career working in marketing and how her adjustment was from civilian life to marrying into the Army. Welcome to this episode that we lovingly refer to as "The Tortured Dependa Department". That name covers all the things!
