Lyndsay Rush (the poet behind the hilarious Instagram account @maryoliversdrunkcousin) is our guest host this week! Each day she’s going to try and make you smile (and most definitely laugh) as she reads some of her favorite headline poems.
Today’s poem: Pig In Australia Steals 18 Beers From Campers, Gets Drunk, Fights Cow.
Lyndsay’s latest book of poems, A Bit Much, is available now.
About It's Going to Be OK
If you have anxiety, depression or any sense of the world around you, you know that not *everything* is going to be okay. In fact, many things aren’t okay and never will be!
But instead of falling into the pit of despair, we’re bringing you a little OK for your day. Every weekday, we’ll bring you one okay thing to help you start, end or endure your day with the opposite of a doom scroll.
Find Nora’s weekly here. Also, check out Nora on YouTube.
Share your OK thing at 502-388-6529 or by emailing a note or voice memo to [email protected]. Start your message with “I’m (name) and it’s going to be okay.”
The IGTBO team is Nora McInerny, Claire McInerny Marcel Malekebu, Amanda Romani and Grace Barry.
Our music is by Secret Audio, and their new album is on Spotify or Apple!
