  • Let’s try this again...Throwback ft. Tim Lodgen! (Ep. 32)
    Sep 23 2023

    ***This is a throwback episode from our first podcast, "The Stiicky Eddie Podcast," published in August 2022. Partnerships and promo codes mentioned have since expired.***

    WARNING: This episode contains mentions of physical and emotional abuse, and suicide/self harm.   Tim Lodgen is so much more than his addiction: he is a husband, father, son, veteran, athlete, and advocate. He is a gorgeous storyteller, with a haunted, complex past. He is kind and funny, and very generous with his time (we would know, we took a LOT of it this week). He is also someone who involuntarily gave 27 years to opioid and alcohol abuse, and almost took his own life more than once.  I have been looking at a lot of old family photos lately, and I believe there is a universal truth behind the monster we know as addiction: NO ONE starts as a little kid who thinks, "When I grow up, I want to feel desperately miserable and be in so much pain that I have to mask it with substances and suffer great consequences." It's heartbreaking to think of the weight of this guilt bearing down on any young person's shoulders. Tim's story of how he worked his way through trauma and depression, and began to unlock his gifts, is so beautiful. He is most certainly an inspiration- and a wonderful example of taking a closer look at the person behind the addiction. Hopefully, this episode will inspire just one person to come out of that shadow.  I ask you to trust me when I say- you are NOT alone. If you are struggling, please reach out. There are actually helpful resources available and if you don't know where to start, we are happy to help. When we spoke to Tim, I can say with certainty that Suzanne and I were blown away. We can't imagine a world without someone like him in it- and thanks to his hard work, and the support of his loved ones, we don't have to.  You're worth it, too.    (Original show notes by Chelsea Pegues)   Follow our CURRENT show on IG: @lets_try_this_again_pod   Please rate and review us on your podcast platform.

  • Let’s try this again...Birds aren’t real? (Ep. 31)
    Sep 16 2023
    Happy weekend, Try-Hards! This week the ladies dive right into a topic that's really taken precedence in recent pop culture: conspiracies theories and social experiments. The fascinating combination of which can really shed light on the malleable nature of humankind and the fragility of societal structure. But don't worry, our usual brand of comic relief is here to stay!  We've also decided to read "The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue" for our fall book discussion! Per Goodreads: "France, 1714: in a moment of desperation, a young woman makes a Faustian bargain to live forever and is cursed to be forgotten by everyone she meets.

    Thus begins the extraordinary life of Addie LaRue...across history and art, as a young woman learns how far she will go to leave her mark on the world. But everything changes when, after nearly 300 years, Addie stumbles across a young man in a hidden bookstore and he remembers her name." Pick up your copy or download the audio (perfect for fall walks!) and join our banter!

    Thanks for joining us again this week, Try-Hards! We love you tons and appreciate you listening!    Follow us on IG: @lets_try_this_again_pod

  • Let’s try this again...Grief, you bitch! (Ep. 30)
    Sep 8 2023
    We are 30 and flirty, Try-Hards! Episode 30, that is!  This week is a hard one for our favorite co-host, Sue. September 7th and 8th mark Bobby's birthday and the 3rd anniversary of his passing, respectively. The ladies dive into how our bodies handle the approach of a marked day, and how we respond to grief in myriad ways. Of course, there are plenty of nonsensical and fun digressions along the way, and we fully intend to settle on (and announce) our book choice next week!  Thanks for sticking with us, as always! We love you very much and appreciate your support and feedback!    Follow us on IG: @lets_try_this_again_pod
