Episode 16 (I Don't Have The Answer)
If you follow me on social media you might have noticed I haven’t really said or reposted anything about the post recent school shooting. I don’t… I’m not sure what to say. It’s not even the most recent mass shooting any more. So far in 2018 there have been 102 mass shootings in the United States...

Episode 14 (2 Dope Queens is Too Dope for Coping Laughter)
Episode 14 (2 Dope Queens is Too Dope for Coping Laughter) Do not try to hide the laughter when listening to 2 Dope Queens in public. You’ll just look crazy anyway because a half-suppressed giggle-snort is much more noticeable. Robinson, Phoebe and Jessica Williams. 2 Dope Queens. WNYC Studios....

Episode 13 (The Struggle IS Real)
Taking the Millennial adage “The struggle is real” to heart in what is worth it and difficult way, and explaining two real things I am doing multiple times a day to try to change my own mind. References: Gladwell, Malcolm. Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking. Little Brown & Co....

Episode 12 (Spoons that Nestle)
Episode 12 (Spoons that Nestle) When your plate is really full trying to not be a crappy person sometimes means you have to settle for a short podcast episode that isn’t about changing the paradigm. References: Pillowscases from an Etsy shop:...

Episode 11 (The Root Word of Bossy)
Sometimes you hear something that sets your blood on fire (Well, hello there, Rage Fever), as a teacher of words and a feminist, “bossy” will do it just bout every time. References: Conger, Cristen and Caroline Ervin. “Why is bossy a bad word?” Stuff Mom Never Told You. How Stuff Works....

Episode 10 (Where Your Mouth Is; Call Your Girlfriend Rec)
Episode 10 (Where your Mouth Is: Call You Girlfriend Rec) I like words to a degree other people find strange (KonMari is totally on my side in this; AKA, I am not a hoarder) and so I like people who follow up their positive use of words with actions such as the team at Call Your Girlfriend and I...

Episode 9 (Walk like a New Yorker)
People in cities walk because they have places to go and it is a good way to get there. Walk with purpose, a plan, and don’t wait for the little walking stick figure to give you permission. See show notes on urbanteaspoon.com for an image of a typical path when doing so.

Episode 8 (Footsteps, a Theme Song)
Footsteps and the sounds of the city have become the theme song of this podcast. Here’s some of where that decision comes from.

Episode 7 (High School Protest, a Personal History)
The recent shooting and student response protests have brought up some old and new thoughts about my personal experiences protesting as a high school student and the law. This episode contains a lot of hearsay and is not the result of research but the experiences lived through and stories shared…

Have you ever been so angry that you felt your core temperature rise? Not just a degree or two, but almost like the fury of your rage was cooking you from the inside over the course of an hour or two? Welcome to a rage fever.

Episode 5 (Lore Rec)
In case you missed it, I like podcasts. Lore never has back episodes I have to catch up on, if you know what I mean. Neither Aaron Mahnke nor anyone connect to Lore (podcast, book series, or television show) has contributed to my financial or material gain. That said, here is a link to the…

A lot can happen on the drive home. This episode contains real emotions and touches upon anxiety and some aspects of PTSD connected to motor vehicular collisions.

Episode 3 (Partnership & Who's the Boss)
Episode 3 (Partnership and Who’s the Boss?) Not about the TV show (though Judith Light is always worth it), but about a text conversation and who does the dishes. Here are some images of the text conversation (yes, they are from the perspective of my friend. I delete things; it happens.): [If...
