Loose Ends

Two brassy broads trying their best to make sense of life’s nonsense. Call it humorous therapy. Or Irreverent self-help. Learn a little, laugh a little, and leave feeling lighter. We hope.

    To YouTube or Not...?

    Send us a textWe were going to talk about AI, its impact and the jobs it may replace, but then... we talked about the podcast, our thoughts after 90 episodes, where it (and we) are headed, and the business of it: Is compromising your soul a necessary part of PR and Social Media? CC gives a short lesson is economics and Val gets real and nets it out, as always.

    Laughter... Sort Of...

    Send us a textWe were gonna' do a show on the health benefits of laughter, but it's January 20th and Trump was just inaugurated. So, there's that... means we need look a little deeper in order to add laughter to our daily recipe for well-being. A certain level of lightness is required to survive the sea changes about to occur, and humour can buoy the spirit in the midst of turbulent waters.

    Bad Dates or Things Not to do While on One

    Send us a textToday's episode is one from the fall we never posted. (While it's introduced as our first videotaped episode, there's actually no YouTube post.) Because our bathroom is being renovated, which means loud noises, no recording took place last week. But this one is fun, and Val holds court with some stories that will make you think as well as laugh.

    Hello 2025

    Send us a textAs we launch a new year, CC and Val trade their intentions--not their goals--for 2025. From harvesting joy to "so what?", they manage to veer toward peach trees and Bob Marley...? Then Val brings it home with a feel good story (about a cat, of course).

    The Lies We Tell

    Send us a textCC and Val take a look at the lies we tell, to ourself, and others. We all do it, but why? What are the prices we pay for them--and the pay-offs we get from them? Telling the truth can be uncomfortable short-term, but long-term it's freeing. Val shares a story and suggests with one bottom-line: trust your gut. CC says: guard your in-to-me-see.

    Powerful Places, Sacred Spaces

    Send us a textCC and Val discuss places that evoke emotion; places like Stonehenge, or cemeteries, where energy can be felt. But, are all "sacred" spaces also "spiritual"? Perhaps connecting to nature, all by itself, without buildings in which to pray (or poop) is spiritual all by itself. But then how do we wind up talking Twin Peaks...?
