What is the episode about?
Hello and welcome to Normal Gossip. I'm your host, Rachel Hampton, and in each episode of this podcast, we're going to bring you an anonymous morsel of gossip from the real world. Welcome to episode six, y'all. If you didn't tune in last week or you're not following us on Instagram, I have got some incredibly exciting news. This fall, Ciara and I are going on tour for the first time. This September, we are bringing Normal Gossip to nine different cities. We are stopping in New York, Boston, Seattle, Portland, Oregon, Denver, Dallas, Austin, Chicago, and Minneapolis. Tickets went on sale to the public on Friday, May 9th. So that means if you are listening right now and live in any of those cities, you can go buy a ticket immediately at normalgossiplive.com.
This is Sierra and I's very first tour, and we are so, so excited to bring this show on the road, and we'll even be meeting some of y'all. There are exclusive VIP tickets for every show that include a meet and greet with the both of us, where I hope y'all will bring me some delicious little morsels of gossip. That is all the housekeeping for today's show. Now, on to the gossip.
What exciting news does Rachelle share?
Y'all, I love every episode of this season, but this one holds a special place in my heart because today's guest is none other than Slate staff writer Nadira Gough. Nadira is truly one of my absolute favorite people to record with. And I think by the end of this episode, y'all will definitely understand why. Some of y'all who are paid subscribers to the show have already heard me and Nadira acting a damn fool. If you're not subscribed as a friend of a friend or a friend, you are missing out not just on Nadira, but on some exclusive listener-submitted gossip. If you want to sign up, go to defector.com slash products slash normal gossip. Okay, that is for real all the housekeeping. Without further ado... Nadira, hello! Thank you so much for joining me. Thanks for having me. I am so excited to be here. I am really so thrilled. Our subscribers have had the absolute pleasure of meeting you before the whole audience does, but for those of y'all who have not had the pleasure of hearing Nadira, you're in for a beautiful ride.
Who is Nadira Goffe and what makes her special?
Oh God, I hope so.
Before we get into the gossip, I would love to know what your relationship to gossip is.
I'm someone who people just like to tell things to, which makes me feel very powerful. So I think it's a net good for society. Me feeling powerful is a net good for society.
I agree. I agree. You do have a very, like... I trust your face, you know? I look at you and I'm like, yes, I trust her.
I said a few days ago to one of my friends that I think I have a 90s face. Oh, I agree. No, I agree. I could see you in living single. Which I think is why no one wants to date me now, but it's fine.
Girl, that has nothing to do with you and everything to do with the fact that men are in a worse state than they have ever been. Do you want to date a man right now? Oh, God, no. Yeah, exactly. There you go.
There you go.
There you go. It's called living single for a reason, Nadira. In a 90s kind of world, I'm glad I got my girls.
Wow. Wow. You're really pulling it all out for this. I feel the red carpet has been rolled out.
A little birdie told me you've got some gossip for me. Well, yes. Okay, see what had happened was... Ooh, I love a story that starts with, well, what had happened was... I've been lying to my mom for over a decade.
Now you outing yourself on the podcast. Look, and maybe my mom will listen to this and she'll be like, baby, I've always known, you know, but... That is very likely. It is very likely. Nicole is very perceptive. However... My mom threw me a 16th birthday party. Mm-hmm. And it was a surprise birthday party. Ooh. But the surprise never actually happened. It was ruined. It was spoiled.
