    Gossip with Barbie and Mary 3

    In this episode, we chat about food, candy, the traditions we have developed around the holidays, and more. We lament the materialistic traditions around this Holiday season. Know that if you are struggling, despite the feeling of isolation, you are not alone.  Is it gossiping or sharing useful information? Join two non-practicing Amish people, Barbie and Mary for your bi-weekly gossip sessions. Let us demonstrate by example how to share gossip properly as we talk about our experiences with life in the community and in dominant culture America. Gossip, done the right way, is always done the Amish way! Produced by The Misfit Amish 2025 Funded by our Patreon Subscribers Art by MB
