Happy Monday. I'm still without my HRT and I'm pretty crabby about it. I need to laugh or cry and I need some chocolate. I talk about the media and how both sides want to keep us divided and why that's not working.

It's the end of the week and I'm pooped. Short episode talking about my gratitude for all of those who have reached out to me and offered to help promote my book Ginger Snapped on their podcasts, radio shows and other mediums. I am beyond touched and grateful for the support. I rant a little about how cute boot season is being cut short due to this unseasonably warm fall. My dog Lilith has not patience today and she lets me know. Have a great weekend!

Just a few thoughts about my mammogram, menopause and the guy who replaced my gas meter.

In this episode I talk about the correlation between acetaminophen and autism, how when I grew up we all took aspirin until the correlation between aspirin and Reyes Syndrome was discovered.

I also talk about some books by Scott Adams that everyone should read so they can be more discerning and maintain an open mind.

My midwestern accent is pretty heavy in this one for some reason.

Thoughts on Charlie Kirk's celebration of life, Erika Kirk's message of forgiveness and our roles in society.

In this episode I talk about my book Ginger Snapped in more detail, giving the backstory to my complicated family and growing up GenX. I also talk about influencers online and how we have the power to curate a better algorithm for our social media enjoyment.

It's been two years since I made my last podcast. I'm hoping to be more regular. In this episode I talk about the assassination of Charlie Kirk and how the media has been handling it - unfairly in my opinion. I also discuss, very briefly, my new book Ginger Snapped. A humor book which could have been titled Get Off of My Lawn, but Ginger Snapped was cuter. You can find the various links to my book on my website https://redheadranting.com/ginger-snapped/.

Still practicing, trying to figure out the audio issues. Saying "um". Peloton, TV and wine.

Post election thoughts and a little about me.
