Tiny Victories — Comedy
Tiny Victories

Tiny Victories is the 15 minute podcast that pushes back on the notion that you have to “go big” or “go home”. Sometimes just going is the victory. Each week, hosts Annabelle Gurwitch and Laura House invite listeners to adopt a TINY victory frame of mind, and share tales of fleeting joys and minor accomplishments in this majorly messed-up world.

The Inception Episode Sep 06, 2021

Show notes

Do you ever get recurring stress dreams? Annabelle’s been bedeviled by a particular dream for the past twenty years where she’s living in the same studio apartment from another lifetime ago. Recently, however, the dream took a turn for the small, and the studio apartment of her dreams is now a bathroom with a mattress. This week, Laura will attempt to find some way to save Annabelle from her subconscious. That’s right. Laura House will attempt to “inception” Annabelle to more fitful sleep.

Grudging Acceptance Beats Prairie Dress Hate Aug 30, 2021

Show notes

There’s a fashion trend never seems to die: the prairie dress. The BBC chronicled the popularity of this zombie dress in a piece by writer Addison Nugent entitled The Prairie Look That Keeps Coming Back. To Laura “I Grew Up in Prairie, TX” House, the dress is triggering. And until a few weeks ago, Annabelle felt nothing but hate for it. And then the entire foundation for her antipathy was upended in a single afternoon. Plus, a new listener faces off against her garbage disposal, and lives to tell us about it.

Show notes

For anyone who, like Laura House, HATED exercise, this is the episode for you! For her entire life, no-longer-spring-chicken Laura House has approached exercise as some approach dental care: It sucks, but it’s one of those things you just gotta do. Cut to present day, and Laura “Hoops” House, not only exercises regularly, but looks forward to it! And all it took was a basketball, and a modest goal. Plus, Annabelle tells us about her short-lived dreams of joining the WNBA.

Side Effects May Include Art Theft Aug 02, 2021
Show notes

No matter how many ads for pharmaceuticals you may have seen, nor possible side effects you’ve heard listed at the end of these ads, nothing will prepare you for the side effect Annabelle experienced with the medication she’s taking. This week she shares the wild story of discovering a nondescript passageway in the bowels of Cedars Sinai Hospital where the drawings of noted Israeli artist Yaacov Agam hung on the walls.

Annabelle may or may not be one step closer to a new vocation, that of an art thief.
Plus, we’ll hear from a caller who shares a synonym to our favorite new word: mudita.
