Everybody Knows But Me: Daily Summaries Delivered
by Holly Brown, Next Chapter Podcasts, Companion Arts
In season 1, we explore Holly's massive family secret. When she was just 17, Holly Brown’s dad was dying of cancer. It looked like life couldn’t get more traumatic, until her dad dropped a bombshell….or two bombshells, really: twin brothers that her entire family kept secret. She was the only one who didn’t know they existed. After his death left her with more questions than answers, Holly sets out to uncover how a secret this big could be hidden, and why the sitcoms that raised her were often the only way to make sense of a life stranger than TV. But Season 1 was only Holly's f*cked up family sitcom. In season 2, we get to know yours.

Episode 7 - The One Where Gabrielle Moss Escapes The Parent Trap
A lot of you probably think your parents are a little annoying, or even kinda overbearing. But how far would they have to go for you to decide to cut them off completely? Growing up, that was a question writer Gabrielle Moss had no idea she could even consider, because it seemed like there was no limit to the toxic behavior her mom and dad were willing to exhibit. Then, as she outlined in her mega-viral 2018 article for Bustle, one day Gabrielle decided enough was enough, and immediately felt freer than she ever had in her life before. Gabrielle joins Holly to remind everyone that a relationship being important doesn’t automatically make it healthy. And when the person crossing your boundaries is the person you’ve been taught you're never supposed to walk away from…you definitely still can. *** SHOW SPONSOR: If you’re struggling with OCD or unrelenting intrusive thoughts, NOCD can help.
