Ashley Hosmer has no pants. She owns no pants. This is not hyperbole. If we asked her to count how many pants she has, the answer would be zero pants. She also doesn’t own an umbrella.

She has a great story about finding $$$$$$ chairs on Facebook Marketplace, and she doesn’t know what’s inside the walls of her old-ass home (because she doesn’t want to k

Ep 110: Adventures in Autism and Lash Serum with Megan Carranza

My friend Megan Carranza joins us today to talk about her podcast, Adventures In Autism. Megan started AiA in 2017 after her son Logan received an autism diagnosis at age 4. At the time, Megan couldn’t find any podcasts that weren’t hosted by doctors or therapists. Those were of course invaluable, but she wanted a community of parents just like her. So she created one herself. Megan is amazing, and she is also the younger sister of my friend Melissa, who you may remember from IG stories and
