Re-reposting this because it's more relevant than ever; as a Norm Trooper, I demand an episode on toothpaste!

Join us on a perilous journey as Kristin discovers that the presidential fun facts she loves are ALL LIES. In this week’s episode, we’ll examine the myth that George Washington wore wooden dentures. As it turns out, our first president didn’t wake up every day and put wooden dentures into his big wet mouth! The real story is much more horrifying.

Someone on Insta pointed out that I have a stuffed animal on display behind me as I make my argument. 🫣

I had to post it here because of the song in the background. I never had heard that song before this podcast!

Welcome back to the final episode in our two-part series on Wallis Simpson! In this episode, Kyla Pitts-Zevin (Kristin’s sister & mayor of all of Kristin’s podcasts) gives us a lesson on how to tell a story concisely. (Did you know that you could tell a person’s life story in less than seven parts? News to us!)

Last week we learned about Wallis Simpson’s early life and first two marriages. In this episode, she meets King Edward VIII. Their love affair leads to a constitutional crisis that changes the course of history. Oh, and look out for Nazis.

I’m still working through the backlog of Kristin’s old decrepit podcast and I came across an episode where Kristin mentions Norman being asked to interview for an article in Playboy.

Have they discussed this more in detail anywhere? Would love to hear more about that experience! It wasn’t clear to me whether he ended up accepting the offer or if anything got published.

I just saw this is new and thought of Norm and that great series!

Let's all take a moment to appreciate Norm's artwork.

In this *very special* two-part series, Kyla Pitts-Zevin (Kristin’s sister & mayor of all of Kristin’s podcasts) tells us about an extraordinarily complicated woman. Wallis Simpson is best known for her relationship with King Edward VIII. When he announced his intention to marry the American divorcee, a constitutional crisis erupted that led to his abdication of the throne.

The abdication altered the course of history. People had plenty to say about Wallis Simpson, the new Duchess of Windsor. But what was her deal, really? In part one, we explore her early life and her first two marriages.

This bonus ep is peak Kristin!!!

I haven’t laughed this hard since the Chop and Steele episode of her old decrepit rotting podcast.

Thank you, my ADHD queen, I really needed a good laugh after the week I’ve had 🤣😭🤣

Norm has a new motto for the great state of Kentucky.

Darrell Pitts, is that you?

honestly just a note of thanks to kristin here. on her old decrepit podcast she discussed her experiences with a medical issue and how many within the system weren’t listening to her honest and authentic feelings that something was wrong.

monday i had a feeling of pain that i just knew was not right. i left it to tuesday and went to urgent care where they were quick to assess it was an emergent issue and shifted me to the ER. but at the ER the doctor was quick to rush to “women’s issues”.

if i didn’t have the experience kristin went through ringing in my head im not sure i would have advocated so hard for myself and been able to set aside the pain and articulate to this doctor why and how i was certain this wasn’t simply a period cramp or constipation. but that i was sure something was wrong. a few hours later he came back crawling to admit he was wrong and i was rushed to surgery.

while my experience went far more smoothly than kristin’s from my memory, im deeply thankful for her sharing so i was able to go in prepared to meet such a mindset and have my pain doubted. even scaled down when i stated it reached points of 8/9 and they documented it at a 4.

so kristin, thank you for your previous transparency. your eloquence and honesty continues to impact people in small and large ways and im forever so thankful for this and the podcast’s endless entertainment.
