  • Things that Make You Go Hmm...

    Send us a text

    Wherein CC and Val talk trifles, whacky word salads, and things that don’t make sense. Why do they sell 10 packs of hotdogs, but only 8 buns? Why is it a penny for your thoughts, but two cents for your opinion? And what about butterflies.? Deep shit this week.

  • Imprints, Residue or Merely Haunted?

    Send us a text

  • Movies, Books, and TV influences

    Send us a text

    Wherein CC and Val discuss the difference between "impactful" and "memorable" movies and books, the safety of mutual team loyalty (or why you better wear green in Philly or purple in Bawlmer), and Val wraps up the show unexpectedly... or tries to.

  • Ways of Knowing

    Send us a text

  • Bests, Worsts, and Ghosts, oh my…

    Send us a text

  • What Ifs, Superheroes, and Baby Chicks

    Send us a text

    Wherein CC and Val surprise each other with "If" questions; things like one last meal, one big regret, one superpower, and yet somehow end up in Val's 6th grade classroom tending baby chicks. Furry little chirp-balls they are... when they're alive.

  • Worry Much?

    Send us a text

    Wherein CC and Val discuss why we worry,  wasting  energy on phantom fears, and end up in a constant state of anxiety. Over-scheduling ourselves and our kids is a great way to perpetuate that.

About Loose Ends

From the publisher's feed

Two brassy broads trying their best to make sense of life’s nonsense. Call it humorous therapy. Or Irreverent self-help. Learn a little, laugh a little, and leave feeling lighter. We hope.
