It’s been a tough few weeks* for Paula, and all of us, following the senseless murder of 49 men and women in a gay club in Orlando.

Paula went to a lovely service at the Foundry Church followed by a vigil walk to Dupont Circle.  She was surrounded by Latinex queers and I felt silly because I had never heard that word before. Here is a handy guide that I am currently memorizing.

A moment of levity in our conversation: this article from The Onion. ‘No Way To Prevent This,’ Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens

If you have to pee outside during The Sports, getchur hands on a Stadium Pal, pal.

Press pause on the podcast and listen to this 100 times please.

We went to see John Paul White and The Secret Sisters to soothe our souls. I tried to be sneaky and take a picture during sound check. Paula just introduced herself after the show was over. Both ways are equally fine and one is not considerably less creepy than the other.

Thanks for sharing your art so we could fill the well…

From Julia Cameron‘s The Artist’s Way:

Art is an image-using system. In order to create, we draw from our inner well. This inner well, an artistic reservoir, is ideally like a well-stocked trout pond. We’ve got big fish, little fish, fat fish, skinny fish– an abundance of artistic fish to fry. As artists, we must realize that we have to maintain this artistic ecosystem.

If we don’t give some attention to upkeep, our well is apt to become depleted, stagnant, or blocked. Any extended period of piece of work draws heavily on our artistic well.

As artists we must learn to be self-nourishing. We must become alert enough to consciously replenish our creative resources as we draw on them– to restock the trout pond, so to speak. I call this process filling the well. 

Thanks for listenin’, y’all! We appreciate you stopping by.

STAY HUNGRY, BITCHES!

*Luckily there is plenty more gay stuff to go around, as Paula is currently in NYC for Gay Pride. 

 

Paula really did meet Salvador! They are now Facebook friends.

The Rapist Brock Turner Debacle of 2016

• Emily Doe’s Victim Statement. Do her justice and read this.
• I will not post Rapist Brock Turner’s father’s statement because it’s disgusting. You can Google it if you want to.
• Amy’s uncle Charles Chastain’s work can be found here.

The Derbyshire Supply Teacher and her Bikini Body Class

This is what “oversouling” is.

Thanks for listenin’, y’all! We appreciate you stopping by.

This was our very first episode that we recorded in January 2016 and then got busy. Not very much of this was relevant when we published it in June, but whatevs. For instance, Kocktails with Khloe has already been cancelled.

Highlights from this episode:

Oh, Oprah. We are mad at you.

We love Amy Schumer but also, the “bullshit” about Fame-Tinder is, in fact, bullshit. Apparently that doesn’t exist and that’s not how Amy met her boyfriend. Oops!

Here is James Corden’s YouTube channel so you can watch all the Carpool Karaoke episodes, including the Adele one that we talked about.
