Honestly, I can’t begin to describe today’s podcast – It simply has to be heard. Enjoy our “3rd Runner Up” interview (the 4th most popular podcast of all time), from Taylor Wiebers, Miss Iowa 2015.

She’s the first Double Preliminary Winner at Miss America in 15 years (FIFTEEN YEARS SHE SCREAMS!!!)… And today, Miss Iowa 2015, Taylor Wiebers, shares her whole pageant story – including the moment when she realized she wasn’t advancing to the Top 10. Every Junkie on the planet should hear this interview – Taylor is a class act and a wonderful example for all pageant contestants to follow – win or lose!!!

Here we are! It’s time to name our Top 5 Most Popular Pageant Junkies Podcasts!!! Coming in as the “4th Runner Up” is none other than the amazing Hannah Robison, Miss Tennessee 2015…

Hannah Robison is a walking example of how being yourself is truly “enough”. She’s the first Miss TN in 7 years who wasn’t blonde – and the first Miss TN in 14 years who wasn’t a vocalist! How did she stick to her guns and refuse to change who she was, with so much going against her? Trust me – There’s great wisdom in today’s Pageant Junkies Podcast…

I find it absolutely fitting that on Election Day, our 6th most popular podcast belongs to Meg McGuffin, Miss Alabama 2015! Fitting, because you may remember a little comment she made about Donald Trump during her on-stage questions at Miss America… But just for the record – Today’s interview isn’t about politics at all…

Talk about ups and downs… Meg McGuffin quickly became Miss AL’s Outstanding Teen, but then it took her THREE YEARS just to win a local pageant, in order to compete at Miss Alabama! In today’s podcast, Meg shares the good, the bad, and the crazy when it comes to her pageant journey – And it’s worth every minute! Enjoy!

She just gave birth to her 3rd child last night (not kidding) – Which means it’s perfect timing to re-release her interview as the 7th most listened-to podcast in Junkie history! Miss America 2009, Katie Stam will always be one of our favorites because she is so darn authentic… We hope you enjoy this interview while Katie enjoys being a mom to her new baby boy… (Congrats Katie!)

For our 100th podcast, we’re crazy, over-the-moon excited to talk to Katie Stam Irk, Miss America 2009!!! In today’s special episode, learn why Katie has never even seen her own Miss America preliminary performance – and discover how she felt being on the judge’s panel that selected Mallory Hagan! Katie is the real deal… And the perfect pick for a centennial celebration of the Pageant Junkies 100th podcast! ENJOY! 🙂

One of our first podcasts released in 2016, Megan Ervin’s interview comes in at #8 on our Top 12 Podcasts of All Time… It’s almost a mini-tutorial of how to win your state title – Which is exactly why it’s been so popular! Enjoy!

If you need a little motivation to kick yourself into gear for 2016, look no further than today’s interview with Megan Ervin, Miss Illinois 2012! This lady is DRIVEN – and Megan offers several tips and tools to help any young woman interested in competing on the Miss America stage. Plus – Learn all about Megan’s 41 pound evening gown named, “Big Red” on today’s Pageant Junkies Podcast…
