Cyber Monday… So Good to Me…

You’re supposed to read that heading like the Mamas & Papas song “Monday Monday”, just in case you didn’t know. And if you’re too young or just plain out of the loop of ultimate late 60’s/early 70’s greatness… here you go: So yes. It’s Cyber Monday! It’s CYBER MONDAY!!! And you know what that […]

PODCAST- Tahni Cullen… Part 2 (this is where it gets really good!)

And a hap, hap, happy Thanksgiving to you! It’s a day to show our gratitude, and I for one am oh, so grateful to have you join me here on our little oasis of the offbeat. Yes, it’s true, I was very mean to cut off Tahni’s story just as it was getting really good… […]

PODCAST: Tahni Cullen, and a Story You Won’t Believe… But You Should… Cause it’s TRUE! (Part 1)

I think my run on sentence heading says it all. And yes, perhaps you think it’s hyperbole when I say her story will blow you away. Oh, but just you wait, my friend… Just. You. Wait. In fact, what she shares is so intriguing, we’re going rogue here and doing a TWO PARTER for the […]

PODCAST- Patricia Beal: Ballerina. Army Wife. Woman of intrigue.

Isn’t it just the way of it? The most humble, unassuming, down to earth people always tend to be the ones who have these incredibly FASCINATING stories? Maybe you know someone like that. Maybe you are someone like that (in which case, hey, I have this podccast, you know… maybe we need to talk). In […]

My Two… Ok, Three Cents… on Adoption

So it’s National Adoption Month. And you know what that means. It means all those other inferior months can go suck eggs. No, not really. I just wanted to say that, cause in my head that sounded funny. Cause, you know. Weirdo. Anyway… if you’re still here… where was I? Oh yeah, Adoption Month, and […]

PODCAST: From Mere Peace to All Out Shalom… with Osheta Moore

My favorite conversations are with people who are so comfortable with who they are, they allow you to be comfortable right back. And you know how I feel about “owning your awkward.” Big, big fan. Well, there’s nothing awkward about today’s podcast guest, my friend, but I’ll tell you, she definitely is someone who […]

It’s a Wonderful… Unremarkable Life

Best movie ever? Go. Nope, not Citizen Kane, not Gone With the Wind, When Harry Met Sally, or Princess Bride… not Titanic (dear lord, no) or even any of the 43 gazillion Star Wars franchise movies (yeah, I know, them are fightin words to some of you freaks, I mean, fans out there). I can’t […]

PODCAST! Braving Sorrow… with Ashleigh Slater

I know what you’re thinking. “Yay! A podcast about sorrow! Sign me up!” … as you run for the hills. I know this because thus is my nature. Can’t we talk about just the happy stuff? Like, all the time? You know, like the obscenely happy blue haired character in Inside Out? Interestingly, it didn’t […]

PODCAST! Candace Payne: Happy Chewbacca and So Much More

There are certain defining moments in our pop culture lives; you know, the ones that capture the attention of a whole nation, and keep our collective eyes riveted to the screen. Like, remember when the Wizard of Oz only came on once a year? Those were good times, my friend. How about Princess Diana’s […]
