Episode notes
We all strive to be civilized human beings, and if it weren’t for our neighbors, it wouldn’t be so challenging. This week, we’ve got three tales of difficult neighbors who redeemed themselves. Joanna from the Silverlake called the Tiny Victory Hotline to tell us about their disdain for her beloved chickens. Laura describes trying to kill her former landlady (with kindness) over ridiculous fees, and Annabelle’s neighbor couldn’t stand that her kid was always hitting baseballs over the fence…and into his yard. So what did each of them do to win over their persnickety neighbors? And what law did politicians in France pass to keep the peace among neighbors? Listen and find out!
Things You Should Stop Worrying About This Week
Transparent Lemon Meringue Pie from James Dempsey
Do YOU have a tiny victory to share?
Call the Tiny Victories Hotline: (323) 285-1675
We want folks to share their tiny victories on our hotline because, frankly, we’ll assume we’re just talking into the void every week and nothing matters. Prove us wrong. Did you finally do that thing you were putting off? Tiny victory! Reconnect with someone you haven’t been in touch with for ages? Victory! We only ask that you try to keep messages to under a minute so we’re able to play it on the show.
If you prefer, you can record a tiny victory on your phone and then email us the audio.

About the show
Tiny Victories is the 15 minute podcast that pushes back on the notion that you have to “go big” or “go home”. Sometimes just going is the victory. Each week, hosts Annabelle Gurwitch and Laura House invite listeners to adopt a TINY victory frame of mind, and share tales of fleeting joys and minor accomplishments in this majorly messed-up world.
What’s your Tiny Victory? Annabelle and Laura invite audience members to share stories on the Tiny Victories Hotline. To send in your Tiny Victory, call (323) 285-1675 or record a voice memo of your victory and email the file to tinyvictories@maximumfun.org.
