Hello and welcome to normal gossip.

I'm your host, Rachel Hampton, and in each episode of this podcast, we're going to bring you an anonymous morsel of gossip from the real world.

Welcome to episode six, y'all.

If you didn't tune in last week or you're not following us

on Instagram, I have got some incredibly exciting news. This fall, Sierra and I are going on tour

for the first time. This September, we are bringing normal gossip to nine different cities. We are

stopping in New York, Boston, Seattle, Portland, Oregon, Denver, Dallas, Austin, Chicago, and Minneapolis.

Tickets went on sale to the public on Friday, May 9th. So that means if you are listening right now and live in any of those cities, You can go buy a ticket immediately at normalgossip

live.com. This is Sierra and I's very first tour and we are so, so excited to bring this show on the

road and we'll even be meeting some of y'all. There are exclusive VIP tickets for every show

that include a meeting greet with the both of us where I hope y'all

will bring me some delicious little morsels of gossip. That is all the housekeeping for today's show.

Now, on to the gossip. Y'all, I love every episode of this season, but this one holds a special

place in my heart because today's guest is none other than Slate

Staffbrider, Nadira Gaw. Nadira is truly one of my absolute favorite people to record with,

and I think by the end of this episode, y'all will definitely understand why. Some of y'all who

are paid subscribers to the show have already heard me and Ndira acting a damn fool.

If you're not subscribed as a friend of a friend or a friend, you are missing out, not just on Ndira,

but on some exclusive listener submitted gossip.
