The steady growth of this community is what makes the maintaining of the magic here possible. I appreciate each and every one of you so much. When I see the big welcome you give newcomers who dare to introduces themselves, it makes me emotional. I've really been blown away by the power of this online community. It's just a group of authentic humans doing the very best they can, often failing, sharing our successes, our defeats, our frustrations, our music, our art, our recipies, our families, our hearts and our favorite memes. It's truly beautiful and when I'm wondering what the fuck I'm doing--coming here reminds me over and over and over again: it's not about me.
This is what you are missing, plebs. #DumpsterFire
Our little genius @samanthashahi made this video lol
We come up with another idea for a YouTube series. Because we don't have enough to do...
A little reminiscence on Cousin Maggie's 40th Birthday. We discuss that time Bridget almost became a stripper.
Dave Rubin joins Bridget for his second appearance on the podcast. They talk the long-term effects and changes brought about by social distancing, staying in touch with friends and family now more than ever, no longer looking at the world through a political party lens, how to support small businesses during the shut down, and wonder if the government can't help people in a time like this, what's the point of government. They share their small successes, like Dave's new garden and Bridget's perfect loaf of sourdough, discuss how irrelevant things like the NBA and celebrities have become, and offer show and movie recommendations. They also cover the future of the Democratic party, how government is all about solving another problem it created and discuss Dave's new book Don't Burn This Book.
Hello new followers, I hope I don’t disappoint you. I want this place to feel like home, where we can escape the Thunderdome and process the world. Where we can post dog pics and recipes and book recommendations. Where we support each other as we get sober, lose weight, embark on new business opportunities, creative endeavors, relationships and travels. I want this to be your oasis of sanity and laughter in an increasingly mad world. A creative outlet where you can share your spirit with us.
We might not have any control over the news cycle—but we can control our habits and attitude. It all starts with us. And hopefully a little piece of that will start here.
I take unplugging very seriously.
On a 17 hour road trip to see my brother in law graduate from flight school in Washington. Camping in the Jeep on our way out and on our way home will be the perfect way to unplug.
Hope you all have a fantastic day and weekend. The world is pretty gorgeous and I'm really glad I get to see it all. Hope you have the chance to unplug and do the same.
First and third pictures are camping in the mountains of Montana (it got a little chilly 🤷🏻♀️). Second picture is Painted Canyon in North Dakota.
