Summary

Fresh from rescuing her backyard ducks from a bald eagle attack, a plant pathologist calls with a bone to pick about Gethard’s feelings on the great state of Oregon. They chat about Portland’s unionized strippers, the often divisive B/A Raccoon Debate, and then the conversation takes a more serious turn as the caller opens up about her journey to sobriety. They talk about seeking support, repairing relationships, and why, no matter what, you can’t ever give up on yourself.
