Hey y'all, Sam Sanders here. We are taking a little break from the show this week, but I am very excited to share a fun

chat I did with one of my favorite podcasts. The show is called Normal Gossip. You may have heard of it,

but in case you're wondering, what is Normal Gossip? I will tell you, Normal Gossip is a wonderfully

hilarious show with a very simple premise. The team at normal

gossip ask listeners to send in the weirdest, most out there gossip they've heard. And then the host,

she tells that story to someone who's never heard it before. Simple and profoundly entertaining.

Host Rachel Hampton had me on a few weeks ago to share some gossip with me.

So this week, because I think you like gossip too,

going to share this episode with you in this podcast feed as well.

Let's get into it. Normal gossipossip right here for you. Enjoy.
