Episode 93: We always struggle choosing which stories to share on the podcast, since we cannot post them all. But we found these two stories to be so complimentary, that we decided to play them together. These stories, told on the theme "DIY or Die", reveal the inner lives of two unique women doing something they are afraid of. They embody the punk rock ethos of do it yourself, but with the unspoken caveat, never alone. I was struck by their courage and their vulnerability. I hope you are too. These stories, the first told by Ellen Wright, the second by Laurel Posakony, were recorded on 9 February 2016 at Tiger!Tiger! Tavern in San Diego.
