Episode notes

No matter how many ads for pharmaceuticals you may have seen, nor possible side effects you’ve heard listed at the end of these ads, nothing will prepare you for the side effect Annabelle experienced with the medication she’s taking. This week she shares the wild story of discovering a nondescript passageway in the bowels of Cedars Sinai Hospital where the drawings of noted Israeli artist Yaacov Agam hung on the walls.

Annabelle may or may not be one step closer to a new vocation, that of an art thief.

Plus, we’ll hear from a caller who shares a synonym to our favorite new word: mudita.

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.

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.

Follow Tiny Victories at @GetTinyPod on Twitter and Instagram.
