Since the part of the story we said she got a dog that could run with her, I have been

thinking the phrase, you've got a fast dog, and kind of a Tracy Chapman voice and cadence.

Hello my little gossip mongers, welcome to normal gossip, the podcast where we bring you

an anonymous morsel of gossip from the real world.

Before we get into the absolute mess that is this week's episode, I just want to give

all of you a heads up that next week's episode will be the season finale.

Alex and I, the producer need a break or we are going to burn up into terrible balls

of fire and not be able to continue to make this podcast.

So we're going to take a little time off, but we'll be back in May with a brand new season

full of great gossip for you.

And in the meantime, I promise you we're going to bring you a few listeners shows so you

won't die of withdrawal.

For this season's break, we're looking for stories about family gossip.

Please story about your mom, your dad, your sister, your terrible aunt will take it, hand

it over, call them into the hotline at 2679 gossip.

Make sure to specify that this is for the listener episode and make sure it's your own gossip

to share so that we can play it.

You can give us your name if you want or stay anonymous, we don't care.

But please remember that the voice mailbox will cut you off after three minutes.

If you need to talk longer, you can just keep calling back over and over again or you can

send us a voice memo at normalgossipetaffector.com.

Okay.
