I’m thinking about starting a podcast. Not because I feel like the next Jay Shetty. Here’s the basis for it. I know a lot of interesting people; Ordinary but also really extraordinary people. They have some incredible stories. I love stories. I also feel like I have the gift of gab along with a couple of my own stories to tell. My husband says I should call it “Ordinary People” but I heard John Legend is a dick and so, NO. Also, I like drinks and my name is Dusky and “Dusk” is what my mom always called me. So, I’ve already gone through 1 name changes. I feel like I’m well on my way! Or at least to having 2+ listeners.
Anyway, just to peek your curiosity, some of the guests I’d invite to come on would be asked about their following story which includes some of the following juiciness:
- Meeting a guy at a club and getting pregnant by him on the first night only to go on to marry him. There’s more to it and it’s fascinating…
- Being the child of an Asian Father and a ginger mother. But wait, there’s more! The mother worked in the California Correctional Facilities as a nurse (lots of good stories) but struggled – creating interesting lives for her 2 children (1 of them being a very close friend of mine).
- A friend who lost her mother to breast cancer only to meet her husband while putting on a breast cancer fundraiser that his band performed at.
- A girl who only fosters senior dogs with lots and lots of problems that have been left to die at the animal shelters and rehabilitating these dogs into the happiest, most spoiled and best cared for animals in the world.
- A friend who is caring for her father with dementia after losing her mother before becoming a mother after getting pregnant by a douchebag that refuses to have any interaction with her amazing boy.
Just off the top of my head, these are a few of the stories that I would die to have shared on Drinks at Dusk. Would you tune in? Perhaps my brief descriptions aren’t quite captivating. I promise you, I don’t befriend boring people. Well, I did once but I was 7 and she was my neighbor. I didn’t know better.
Anyway… thoughts? Questions? Opinions?
