Ep. 3: Give Way, Ye Gates

Time Spent with Meredith Baker: A Season in America

Release Date: 08/18/2021

Give Way Ye Gates:  a visitor comes to camp with a steamy and unexpected poem.

Meredith answers an unexpected phone call and before she knows it, she’s agreed to host the friend at Camp Concrete next Tuesday… Six feet apart, of course. When her friend arrives they sit and indulge in sweet dark cherries and discuss Hamilton the musical… well, her friend discusses it while Meredith listens on. The friend rambles on about her audition for a local production of Mamma Mia and talks about memorizing a long poem in college that may not have been what she thought it was. She recalls reciting the racy poem aloud and 35 years of embarrassment come gushing out of her as she doubles over crying and laughing with Meredith.
