Hello and welcome to episode six of the Situation Normal podcast! The podcast has the same vibe as the newsletter, but instead of reading, you listen to me tell stories to my friend Todd.

In this episode, I tell Todd about the time I rode inside of a Rose Parade float. Spoiler alert: I didn’t love it, but my dad had a blast. We also talk about my father’s contributions to parade entertainment, the origins of the Rose Parade, and why going with the flow when things don’t go according to plan might just be the secret to finding joy.
