Description

There’s a fashion trend never seems to die: the prairie dress. The BBC chronicled the popularity of this zombie dress in a piece by writer Addison Nugent entitled The Prairie Look That Keeps Coming Back. To Laura “I Grew Up in Prairie, TX” House, the dress is triggering. And until a few weeks ago, Annabelle felt nothing but hate for it. And then the entire foundation for her antipathy was upended in a single afternoon. Plus, a new listener faces off against her garbage disposal, and lives to tell us about it.Things You Should Stop Worrying About This WeekSad astronautsLearning all the letters of the Greek alphabetWhy a burned-out home in Northern California is getting offers north of $850K Do YOU have a tiny victory to share?  Call the Tiny Victories Hotline: (323) 285-1675We want folks to share their tiny victories on our hotline because, frankly, we’ll assume we’re just talking into the void every week and nothing matters.

Tiny Victories is the 15 minute podcast that pushes back on the notion that you have to "go big" or "go home". Sometimes just going is the victory. Each week, hosts Annabelle Gurwitch and Laura House invite listeners to adopt a TINY victory frame of mind, and share tales of fleeting joys and minor accomplishments in this majorly messed-up world.
