Here's Something

Our first guest (and first-born child) Ruby Hogan shares the creative process behind the world premiere of her song, "Unicorn, Unicorn, Unicorn," ft. The Voice contestant, Molly Stevens. From a songwriting collab Zoom call, to how poetry can help you process, and from winging it, to starting new things in quarantine, this episode gets the whole family in the mix.

To say that parenting in quarantine is a challenge is a bit of an understatement. Distance learning, working from home, looking for work from home — it can become quite a pressure cooker. In Episode 5 we explore something called the “Window of Tolerance” and tell you exactly what not to do if you lose it at your kids in a Dairy Queen parking lot.

Blaine recently discovered something that needed a look from the good ol’ doc. In this mid-week, bonus episode, we talk about what it feels like to wait (yes, more waiting) for some possibly unsettling results, as we learn from poet David Whyte on the power of vulnerability in moments like these.

Recorded a few weeks ago while Blaine was feeling a bit of the depresh, and we both were waiting on work, life, and the world, we thought we’d share this one anyhow — because frankly, we’re all still waiting on something.

You didn’t ask, but we thought we’d tell you the story of how we met. From black box theaters to pirate teeth, from Justin Timberlake to Mark McGrath, from Sun-In hair dye to Margaret’s Grandpa Pippen, we cover a lot of ground in this one.
