The Unofficial Transcript

Dr. D & Coach A

🎙️ The Unofficial Transcript
Real Life. Real Lessons. No Syllabus Required.

College is just one chapter — but no one ever gives you the full transcript.

The Unofficial Transcript is a candid, funny, and honest podcast about the lessons we learn in college, because of college, and long after graduation. We talk about education, identity, mental health, relationships, money, career pivots, and the messy in-between moments that shape who we become.

Some episodes dive into college experiences, mistakes, and decisions — the stuff guidance counselors don’t tell you. Others go way beyond campus, unpacking real-world growth, unlearning, and figuring life out when the rules aren’t clear anymore.

This show is for:

  • Students trying to make sense of college life
  • Graduates navigating “now what?”
  • People who didn’t take a traditional path
  • Anyone who wants honest conversations about growing up, starting over, and leveling up

Think of it like the conversations you wish you had earlier — or the ones you still need now.

No lectures. No perfection. Just real talk.

New episodes weekly. Press play.
