I Love That For You‪!‬ I Love That For You with Red and Kelly

Prepare to laugh, cry and be inspired by this episode, listeners because today we are chatting with Dr. Nicole Holliday, an Assistant Professor in the Department of Linguistics and Cognitive Science at Pomona College in Claremont, California, and soon to be Associate Professor in the Linguistics Department at UC Berkeley!
 
Nicole received her Ph. D. in linguistics from New York University, and her BA in linguistics and Spanish from The Ohio State University. If that wasn't enough, Nicole is also a trivia MASTER, huge traveler, marathon runner, Crossfit level 1 trainer and a bride to be in four months and counting! But overcoming adversity and unexpected setbacks is the name of the game this episode as Nicole takes us through the WILD ride and huge unexpected setback(s) that was her 2023...so much so that a Lifetime movie exec would say "nah, that's not realistic." So strap in, listeners. You're DEFINITELY going to want to tune in to this one and we'll definitely have to have her back for more linguistics talk!

Kelly catches Red up on the trips she's been on (all while sick, fun fun!) before Red gives Kelly the positive spin on birthdays that Kelly needed. Then, it's the start of pride month, so who better to highlight than the entrepreneurial, trailblazing, drag queen icon who needs no introduction, RuPaul!?
And just remember....if you don't love yourself, how in the hell you gonna love somebody else?!

It's a Memorial Day themed episode and the ladies have a very special profile in store for it! First, Red and Kelly discuss their Victoria Day and Memorial Day weekend plans and the upcoming trips they have in store for it. Red leads the way in spotlighting an iconic figure in WWII Canadian history - Veronica Foster aka Ronnie, the Bren Gun Girl! They learn all about her claim to fame and how she may have been influential in another female icon in WWII US history (any guesses?) And with a Memorial Day themed "Do We Love This or That?", our hosts would like to thank those who serve/have served and are remembering those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Thank you for your service from all of us at I Love That For You!

Mercury is in retrograde as this episode was recorded and the latest happenings in Kelly and Red's lives certainly reflect that, but never fear! Dopamine-infused goodness is on the way with the epic profile of late-blooming trailblazer Caroline Herschel, who experienced such childhood cruelty, she thought of herself as Cinderella. Yet she overcame abuse and disfigurement to reach for the stars! Red then leads an astronomy themed round of Do We Love This or That?
*Editors Note: There is a slight unaccounted for sync / delay issue with the audio in this episode for some reason. Apologies!
