Summary
In honor of Free Bert, we're revisiting one of my favorite episodes with LeeAnn Kreischer.
Original description:
Writer, mother and host of Wife of the Party, LeeAnn Kreischer has always struck me as very wise and self-actualized. Turns out she really is! We talk about her incredibly challenging childhood, her desire to be happy, growing up with a borderline mother, meeting her husband Bert Kreischer, a little something called "Bert Mode," the effect of Bert's success on her marriage, realizing she preferred writing to acting, recurring fights, her years in New York, postpartum depression and rage and so much more. We also answered your questions and did a Just Me Or Everyone involving couch maintenance.
Plus we did a round of JMOE, HGFY and Podcast Pals Product Picks.

| 0:00.0 | Hello, everyone, before the show officially starts. |
| 0:04.8 | I wanted to come on here and say that this week we are revisiting. |
| 0:09.3 | One of my favorite episodes is from 2021. |
| 0:11.8 | It's with Leanne Kreischer, wife of comedian and friend of the show, Bert Kreisher, |
| 0:16.8 | and host of Wife of the Party podcast. |
| 0:19.3 | She's on my mind because I just watched Free Bert, |
| 0:22.5 | the new Netflix show featuring Bert and also friend of the show, |
| 0:27.8 | Arden Marine, plays Leanne, |
| 0:29.8 | and it is sort of a fictionalized but inspired by their life retelling of their life. |
| 0:37.2 | I don't know if that's the best way to describe it, |
| 0:39.1 | but it's really good. I recommend it. So I was thinking, I want to revisit this Leanne episode. |
| 0:45.1 | And here it is. And then also, I should tell you that Daniel and I have started a weekly |
| 0:51.8 | news podcast. I'm announcing this before it's really a thing. |
| 1:00.2 | We've recorded one episode so far, and that is available on Patreon. And it'll be a Patreon |
| 1:05.5 | bonus podcast. So if that sounds appealing, hopefully we'll still be doing it by the time you |
| 1:12.8 | check that out. Patreon.com slash Allison Rosen is where you go for that. And if you like what you're |
| 1:17.4 | hearing, please leave us a nice comment or a shitty one. I don't really care, but comments are |
| 1:24.4 | good reviews, et cetera, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, wherever you listen, |
| 1:29.8 | it does make a difference. |
| 1:31.1 | Thank you so much. |
| 1:32.2 | Here's the episode. |
