Episode notes
Spring brings big holidays in many traditions–Ramadan, Easter, Passover–which brings up a dilemma: What’s a NONE (a nonreligious person) to do if they want to take part in the ritual of a holy holiday…minus the holy part? Annabelle has found a way, and she WILL have the brisket at her Passover Seder. House, raised Christian, has decided that she will start celebrating Brunchover. And we’ll hear from Rabbi Lisa Goldstein, who reads a poem by Adrienne Rich, and our first couch-beating victory from Cathy.

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.
