Nate the...WAIT! Where's Cory?? (part 2)
Send us a textJoin Nate and me as we relive the tale of our hero coworker Cory who started AND quit the very same day! He read the vibe within 8 hours and said "immediately no" to our house of horrors. Also hear the tale of our poor coworker who was fired, had stomach flu and was bit by a rabid fox...all in the same week! A camera crew was waiting for her at her house after getting 10 shots in her stomach. Also, you'll meet a very jarring employee, who collected multiple jars of all sizes...

Nate the Great (Part 1)
Send us a textNate is everything you want in a fave coworker — funny, kind, and smart with a great sense of humor! We worked in a crazy nut house of a place with see-through walls and had to entertain ourselves to get through it all with laughter. He joins me today with a non-alcoholic beverage and calls himself "Nate the Cheap Date" with all you'll save on wine and liquor. This will be a multi-parter as he has a lot of hilarious stories to share! Sit back and get ready to laugh.

Coworker Craig Hope and Dreams (Part 2)
Send us a textCoworker Craig demanded more episodes and so his Trauma Dump continues as he tells us how he once worked for hair cuts (BAD ones! ... yet he went back) and old shoes. He would prefer working for money. We also worked at an ad agency where the owner was (unknown to us) laundering money and then fled the country. We were "fun-employed" at the same time. That's the unpredictable world of advertising for you!

Coworker Craig and the Gassy Boss (Part 1)
Send us a textTalk a walk down memory lane with us as my old coworker Craig sits on the therapy couch (unfortunately I am NOT a therapist, but if you are, we'd LOVE to hear from you!) and tells the tale of our mutual boss who woke him up very early to say that he was soaked with gas and all our creative work he needed for a presentation was also somehow covered in gas!! It is a mystery to this day how that happened, but Craig did come to save the day and the boss...

Kate the Great from Montana (part 2)
Send us a textKate and I might not have it all together, but we have each other, and that counts for something? We are always way off course...unless it's an appetizer. This episode covers our time at the Billings, Montana Rockin' Rock and Gem show where Kate bought a 30-pound box of dirt hoping to find some precious stones in there. We realized we kept saying we were going to the Rock and Gem show and folks thought we meant "Rockin' Jam show" which might be fun as well, but once they found out it...

Crazy Cousin Kate (Part 1)
Send us a textI flew out to Montana to meet my fellow Hot Mess lady and favorite cousin KATE! We come from an EXTREMELY large family with something like 50 cousins, we lost count. Our Grandmother had 10 children so this was bound to happen. She is a self-proclaimed Trash Panda and we talked about eating too much Mexican street corn at yet another huge family gathering. The next day, the street really came out! We sound tired after four days straight of picnics, white water rafting, brunches, potlucks... our family loves to eat apparently. We just wanted...

Poetry for the Dementia Journey - Episode Two
In celebration of National Poetry Month, we hosted a gathering of poets on April 18, 2023, to share work inspired by their dementia experiences. We understand that storytelling, of any kind, but especially through poetry lightens burdens. For many caregivers, poetry can be a means of expression, of sharing their experience, opening hearts to joy, or drowning sorrows. Finding the right words to tell our stories can ease our journey. Reading the words of others can inspire us, give us strength, and let us know we are not alone. The response to our initial invitation to a po...
