It’s a big dream-come-true day for Meg as she gets to sit down with one of her all-time favorite podcasters: Patrick Hinds! Patrick is the co-creator and co-host of True Crime Obsessed, a podcast that is always at the top of Meg’s must-listen list of favorites. But he’s not here to talk all things TCO today! Instead, he’s sharing two incredible, unforgettable stories from his bestselling brand new book Failure Is Not NOT An Option: How the Chubby Gay Son of a Jesus-Obsessed Lesbian Found Love, Family, and Podcast Success … and a Bunch of Other Stuff. From hilarious misadventures with a golden (and grouchy!) celebrity to a touching story of saying yes to growing a family, you simply must hear the wisdom and the hilarity that Patrick has brought for the Awesomes! Not a Super Star yet? Today is a great day to become one!
