Love in the Time of Corona with Vikram Gandhi

You're Welcome w/ Zoe Nightingale

HELLO WORLD!

It is I, Zoe Nightingale and I am BACK.

I know I know, it's been a minute, and for that I am deeply sorry. I got swallowed into a work worm hole without and exit but thankfully Corona in her all knowing glory, eviscerated my business and left her to die a slow prolonged death on the side of the highway! The silver-lining of that of course, is that it gave me the time to get back into my first love, podcasting.

Granted, it took me a while to grieve the loss of my previous life and settle into my new one. Turns out it's not easy to podcast when all you want to do is crawl into a ball and evaporate, but after a lot of green juice, ocean air and hardcore journaling, I AM BACK!

I am am here to provide you with the same kind of hard hitting investigative journalism that I have always have...but with a twist! Almost all of my new podcasts will be done over the phone... but never fear, we will be virtually tackling all your favorite topics such as:

SEX DRUGS GLITTER DRAG QUEENS FAILURE SUCCESS DEPRESSION MEANING OF LIFE ORGASMS PARTNERSHIP MONOGAMY PARENTING POLITICS MUSIC FURRY ANIMALS TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS HOMELESSNESS WHAT THE FUCK DO I DO NOW SHIT FUCK TOURETTES etc...

With some of the worlds most interesting humans.

First up, the one and only Vikram Gandhi who I met in 2008 when a boy I had a gigantic crush on called me and asked if I could host his friend Vikram for the Obama inauguration in Washington D.C. Host him I did, we proceeded to have one of the best weekends of my life.

The African American community of DC turned the city to and an 11 and I have never seen happiness and hope for the future on such a wide scale. Remember when we elected Obama? REMEMBER WHEN TRUMP WAS NOT OUT PRESIDENT!!? It all seems like a quaint dream now...

Since then I've watched him crush life in almost every aspect. A celebrated documentary film maker, feature film director, producer, and one of Vice's best journalists whose been traveling to every corner of the globe for a decade bringing us stories that never would have seen the light of day if not for his cameras. Thank you Vikram! You are an inspiration and a delight to be friends with.

So enjoy my first podcast, I will be posting more very soon and I hope my voice can keep you company and remind you that at some point, you will have sex again. I promise. I have no idea who with, I could be a vegetable, but it will happen.

All joking aside, wherever you are in the world, I send you so much virtual love. This is the single best and worst time to be a human. I'll be posting some comedy writing on activities you can do during quarantine to keep your collective chins up shortly and don't forget if you need me, I'm here! You can find me
