We’re recording from the least glamorous studio imaginable: a camper bed in Kansas, in full “dead bug pose,” while tornadoes, flooding, and rerouted travel plans turn the Midwest into a live weather report. Two weeks into our road trip, we’re tired enough to be incoherent and honest about it. We dig into what RV campground life is really like, from a party-heavy New York park with live music and string lights to a Kansas RV park full of oil field workers living there short-term because it’s the only affordable option.
Then comes the best stop so far: friends in Missouri. We attended a pride event, Leah got a tarot reading that wasn't so great, “tactical furries” that braved the Missouri heat, and a movie night with the low-budget apocalypse comedy Bored Games. We also talk about travel tattoos, including a Kansas piece inspired by pioneering tattoo artist Maud Wagner, and finish with a practical writing corner on beta readers, readability, and the eternal struggle of commas in dialogue.
