As we headed into our final daily show before summer vacation, TDWS favorite Ellie Leonard joined us for a conversation that started with parenting stories and with our weekly news competition.
I’m not going to disclose the stories or the winner, only that Ellie’s story won for funniest Fucked-up Friday pitch we’ve heard in ages.
We’ll be back every Friday all summer. But this was a lovely reminder of why we’ve spent the last fifteen months showing up for these conversations in the first place.
Thank you Nick Paro, Amy Gabrielle, Ben Ulansey, Courtney M 🇨🇦🏳️🌈, and many others for tuning in and the the amazing Karen Marie Shelton and Yanni Hamburger for moderating.
Thanks for listening!
