  Episode #38

  Episode 38: The same air freshener has been hanging in four different cars in three different cities and my receipts say they were four different men

  Aug 13, 20265 minS0

  Submitted by Shay — Omaha, Nebraska. 43. There is a version of me that only exists between an airport curb and a hotel lobby, and that woman does not look at anybody. I train front-desk staff at regional clinics on a scheduling system. Three weeks out of four I am gone Monday morning to Thursday night, and two years ago my company stopped approving rental cars, because somebody in a spreadsheet worked out that expensing rides is cheaper. So now I come out of baggage claim with a roller bag and a laminated badge and get into whatever pulls up, and I si...

  Episode #37

  Episode 37: The woman who sold us our piano has come to every one of my daughter's recitals for four years and I was the one who kept inviting her

  Aug 12, 20265 minS0

  Submitted by Dee — Erie, Pennsylvania. 43. We got the piano for two hundred dollars in the spring of 2021, which is what an old upright goes for around here. The listing had one blurry photo and three words: good tone, must go. The woman selling it — Colleen — met us in the driveway and didn't haggle and didn't hover. My brother-in-law and I walked it down her two porch steps while she stood in the grass with her arms crossed. Before we pulled away she came to the truck window and said the bench was full and she'd left it that way on purpos...

  Episode #36

  Episode 36: A man I matched with on Ancestry sends me a birthday card every year using a nickname nobody in my family has said out loud since 1994

  Aug 11, 20265 minS0

  Submitted by Fran — Terre Haute, Indiana. 46. My daughter bought me the DNA kit for Christmas as a joke. I had spent all of Thanksgiving insisting my mother's people came over from Alsace, and she wanted paperwork to make me stop. I spit in the tube the first week of January and then forgot about it the way you forget a jar of change. The card came in March. Grocery store card, cartoon dog in a party hat, the kind you buy when you have four minutes and a birthday you almost missed. Inside, in ballpoint: Many happy returns, Bitsy. Signed, Ra...

  Episode #35

  Episode 35: My apartment was listed for rent six times in the year and a half before I signed and I never thought to look until this June

  Aug 10, 20265 minS0

  Submitted by Lonnie — Duluth, Minnesota. 34. I found the place at eleven at night on my phone, on one of those rental sites, the way everybody finds everything now. One photograph did it. The front room in the afternoon — bare wood floors, one tall window, and a wedge of light lying across the boards like somebody had set it down there. Seven forty a month, second floor of a brick fourplex up on the hillside here in Duluth, heat included. I saved that picture to my camera roll before I even finished the application, and I still have it. That photograph is t...

  Episode #34

  Episode 34: The church that fed us for two years stopped speaking to us the week my dad died and I still have one of their dishes

  Aug 10, 20265 minS0

  Submitted by Bree — Cullman, Alabama. 35. We moved to Cullman the summer I turned eleven, for my dad's job, and we did not know one single person in that town. The second Sunday we went to the church out on the county road, and by that afternoon there was food on our porch. Three dishes that first week. One of them was a heavy white ceramic thing, oval, a chip out of one corner, and a strip of masking tape on the bottom with RUBY on it in ballpoint, the letters gone soft from too many dishwashers. That was the whole sy...
