A Fireside Chat
Disclaimer: I am very overworked and sleep deprived so I lose my train of thought and take many detours during this story. It all comes back together at the end, but truthfully, my brain is fried and I'm exhausted. Sorry for the many pauses and forgetting my place. This week, I break format a little bit to tell you one story with many side rants and tangents. This was one of the most awkward experiences of my life. I still cringe when I think about it. I hope you enjoy hearing about it. Thanks for listening! We now have a hotline where you can call 24/7 and tell me anything...

Stop the presses! An AFC Christmas episode? Have I finally embraced my inner Christmas spirit? Has my move to a new place finally killed the Scrooge inside of me? OF COURSE NOT. Don't be ridiculous. This week I discuss some Christmas themed topics like my hypocrisy towards the season, the perfect gift for a loved one and a Christmas song with misheard lyrics. Also I cut ties with Gladys, a listener shares their very unique "gift", and I tell you about someone I'm currently obsessed with but you may be surprised for the reason behind it. All this plus more misheard lyrics and some great...

The anonymous box is your direct path to let your voice be heard on the show.
IT'S COMPLETELY CONFIDENTIAL AND ANONYMOUS.
The link is pinned to the top of the shows social media pages. This podcast could not be possible without the amazing anonymous contributions of listeners like you!
HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT 1: What's a song lyric that you thought was one thing but was something completely different? How did you find out? How long were you singing the wrong lyric? Be as vague or specific as you like.
HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT 2: Listen to 1 album per week (52 for the year), start to finish, in it’s entirety, that you’ve never listened to before. The only rules are they have to be full length albums. No 5-song ep's and no Greatest Hits compilations. It can even be an album that you have SOME familiarity with. As long as it’s a full length album, and one you’ve never listened to in its entirety before, it counts.
