Many Friday mornings, I head over to my Partner in PTSD’s (Chris) house to record episodes of the PTSD Parent podcast. Oh yeah, the first season of the PTSD Parent Podcast is now available, by the way!
We meet when it is so early. This means that it’s 10 am on a Friday. I KNOW, I’M SUCH A CREAMPUFF WHEN IT COMES TO MORNINGS. But sometimes I walk to his house and it’s a half hour each way (uphill, of course, both ways) so I need to factor in my health and stuff. And time to drink my coffee before that. So there’s a lot going on, basically.
Surprise! Ready, Camera, Action!
I say all this because I generally don’t shower on Friday mornings before we meet. I mean, we’re sitting in front of microphones, not in front of a camera.
Usually.
The last time I went over, he surprised me with a camera set up in his kitchen, which is basically where we record our shows. As I got out of my car in front of his house, Chris opened his kitchen window and yelled, “That is quite the patriotic outfit today!”
I can’t help it that I look SO GOOD in camo. It just goes with my skin tone, seriously. In the video below, you can see how much fun we had razzing on my most professional and amazing outfit. Right before we went live, I was singing Proud To Be An American by Lee Greenwood. I’m an Army brat, I know every word.
Well, I rolled with it. Chris generally has great ideas when it comes to our new show, and the live video (included below) introducing the podcast was amazing, showered or not.
How to Get More Episodes and Videos
Now that we’ve recorded video, we are sure to do more. I mean, it was too much fun. We’ll be talking about Post Traumatic Stress Disorder in our lives and families, including symptoms, treatments, research, rumors, and stories from us and from invited guests.

Here is the intro video to the PTSD Parent Podcast
This was really fun to record, unshowered and in a weird outfit or not. This episode introducing the PTSD Parent Podcast is just a really good example of the tone of the show, our chemistry, our sense of humor, and what it’s like to have PTSD from a male and female prospective. Enjoy!
