Famously Dumped

Usama get's dumped in a truly chaotic way by an unhinged woman who potentially had a psychotic break during the dump - basically Morgan when she was 25 years old. Usama poignantly explains that America doesn't value the muscle of cognition and reflection. While America puts value solely on achievement, other cultures value the process - embracing growth and pain as you detach from the actual event. Also, Usama gives Morgan the best compliment she's ever been given

Oh man, this is one of our craziest Famously Dumped stories yet - Emma gets ghosted by a girl she really only dated, but obsessively clung on to as if they were girlfriends. This led to some serious chaos and a relapse. Psychotically, a TV show approaches her about doing a segment on getting ghosted and she elaborately tries to convince the producers that this girl was in fact her girlfriend, when she was not...AT ALL.

Emma Willmann gets dumped twice and wants to spill both stories on Famously Dumped. In part one, Emma is dumped by her costal long-distance college girlfriend who actually sets a very mature boundary around the breakup. Emma explains that as us lesbians do, this breakup involved a lot of "processing." Lesbians LOVE to process.

Morgan talks to comedian Jared Freid about the time on birthright when he came so fast it basically warranted a breakup. When the lights are turned off on the relationship, Jared has some intense realizations as he compares himself to Lenny from Of Mice and Men: holding on too tight is never a good sign.

Morgan talks to comedian and writer Corinne Fischer about how getting dumped actually skyrocketed her career. After some serious grieving, she, like me, started a podcast and then wrote an entire book about it called F*cked. She literally gives step by step directions on how to navigate a breakup - it's brilliant.

Morgan gets a phone call from her best friend Patrick to tell him the bad news. Morgan in real life did almost relapse and check herself into a psych ward... it was dark before there was light. Love you Patrick. Patrick?

Ever gotten broken up with? Was everyone talking about it? Then this pod is for you, hunni.
