Bridgette is great and most of her experiences are beyond my nicely insulated life, but I am Gen X, and like her husband Dungeons & Dragons has been a big part of my life and I still think he should run a game for her and her friends and record it! Would definitely listen! Alternatively, I am also willing to run the game 😉

Great conversation! Thanks for all that each of you do!

My three very favourite women in podcasting! I love it when you all get together. This was delightful, often hilarious, and even the serious parts just made my whole day. THANK YOU!!

I really enjoyed this episode! I'm right there with all of you when it comes to procrastinating doing the thing (whatever that may be) and feeling guilty that I'm not doing enough/fulfilling my potential.

And I cackled out loud at the beginning when Chaya Leah asked "did you have a lot of experience?" (with writing) and Bridget interrupted to exclaim, "With blowjobs?!"

WHAT. A. RIDE. I was lucky to see Bridget at a Megan Daum event with Yael and should have KNOWN you three would hit it off this well. I laughed, I cried, I scratched my head in solidarity and cramped my neck viciously nodding in affirmation that everyone has just lost their minds. Off to check out Bridget’s stand up schedule… thank you ladies!

I loved this episode and really dug that it took you almost an hour and a half to get to Israel. I figured it was Bridget’s doing so thanks for that and you can brag to your dad that you’re a good influence on the Jews.

As someone who is beyond obsessed with the 10-7 attack, the immediate reaction, the coverage, the later reaction and the ongoing cesspool that the world has become, I’d like to hear a little more about how you’re dealing with the stress from October 7th. According to my face cancer, Hamas is not only winning the war in Gaza, but they have convinced the world that Islam is the one and only religion built on love and the backs on its collectively innocent people. Conversely Judaism is a bad religion, and its people are all assholes – even the newborns. In the past, when I was stressed out, I would get indigestion. Since October 7th, I have had either a stye in one eye or in both and that’s it if I’m lucky. Mostly, the right side of my face looks like I got punched by someone who dipped their hand in cheap red paint. Or I look like I got a wet kiss from a sex worker after a very long night of work with no antibiotics. Or like someone with Ebola on their fingers did the Three Stooges eye poke to me. Is there anyone else managing their stress worse than the person with face cancer? People with swollen inflamed eyes want to know.
