This show is so silly and fun and funny. I've followed Lindy since her days writing scathingly hilarious movie reviews where I immediately said I need so much more of this voice! I don't really listen to podcasts but this is the exception. I love the micro, midi, and maxi segments and all of the inside jokes these two let us in on. I've taken to singing crazy lady living in a bag when I non sequitur which is often! Anyway if I could give extra stars I would. Love this pod.
ALIB784 WE COULD DO A MAXI SEGMENT ON OUR LOVE FOR YOU BABE!!!

Welcome back to Swamp Person! Today we welcome our first GUEST. Her name is Jenny Hunter, and she’s a labor lawyer and writer based in DC. And we are so excited to be answering some important questions about LABOR UNIONS + THE SUPREME COURT.
Today we have a listener question coming in from one Lindy W. of the Washington State area: How come sometimes the Supreme Court issues a ruling that doesn’t make us want to claw our eyeballs out? Sometimes Clarence Thomas decides NOT to p*ss in our mouths??? Is that on purpose?
We just want to say thank you to everyone who has been tuning into the live stream so far! We have given away copies of Adult Braces, we have read your essays, and we have fallen in love with each and every one of you!! If you haven’t yet tuned in, we have ONE MORE livestream TONIGHT!!!
