Transcribe →Ep. 114 We Hired a Sitter #2
Aug 25, 2023Tap to summarizeHi it’s our second episode of the podcast formerly known as Who Cares About Ross and Patrick. This is WE HIRED A SITTER FOR THIS. Thanks for tuning in. We talk very very openly about money. How we make it, how we spend it, how much we are debting, etc. You’re welcome! Let our stress be your comfort. Patrick talks about the kind of money he makes (or doesn’t make) as a comic and Ross talks about how changing careers is sending their family onto the precipice of financial ruin. Also, I celebrated 15 years sober this week (this is Patrick writing by the way). So I recorded a very odd solo segment about feeling grateful about my sobriety. So take a listen if interested. There are rats involved. Feel free to give us both a follow on IG, we communicate a lot with listeners and producers there. @rosserinstyles and @theholbertreport and @who.cares.podcast We are thinking of putting together a yoga / creativity retreat in Fall 2024. Would you come? Also, we are thinking of starting a Patreon to try to proceed with this podcast solvently. We would offer bonus episodes, behind the scenes footage, audience questions, etc etc who knows maybe even tasteful nudes. Would you join a patreon if we started one??
