The Grandpa that married his cousin. I love the scandal! |
I guess I have a plug for Storycorps. I finally got a podcast app and have been
binge consuming podcasts that I’ve always wanted to follow. I have learned a great many random facts,
it’s my hobby after all, and I remembered that they had StoryCorps on NPR as a
podcast. StoryCorps is a recording of
oral traditions and lives of everyday people. It is then archived in Washington
DC. They have three permanent bases in
the country, one in Atlanta, and a moving studio throughout the country
recording in rural and other areas. I would love to do this, but the people I
want to archive don’t live in Atlanta or come to visit me. I did think about Daniel and I could
interview each other, but I have a recording of us talking about how we met and
what that was like for us feeling like we were outside of our cultural norm. I
do have a friend who is big advocate for breastfeeding and is helping with legislation
in Georgia. That could be interesting, but I also heard about Florence Williams
book about our least researched, fascinating, miraculous organ…breasts. It
could be that it is just on my mind.
Most people are interesting to me, but I suppose I want to interview
someone who thinks their interesting and open to bizarre questions. Most the time when I interview older people I
ask inappropriate questions about sex because I think the cultural shift in
that area has been so huge in the last fifty years and what hasn’t really
changed from the different historical views on sex. Can you tell I took a History of Sex class in
college? This could be something to add to my resolution.

YAY Scrapbooking! And I had no idea you took a history of sex class in college. I would totally be interested in that class but probably too prudish to take it.
