In the odd chance I bore you before you get to the Extra Hot Sauce section at the bottom of my newsletter, I’m putting a reminder here of my contest I announced last week.
If you would like to be a guest on the Podcast Gumbo podcast, just reply to this email letting me know you want your name in the hat. You DON’T have to have a podcast. But if you do, I’ll talk about your show. It’s free advertising!
The contest ends tonight at midnight so don’t dilly dally.

Well Hello, Joel
The Skimmer's Hook: After a terrible loss, Richard asks for a sign to move forward.
Listen if you like: Hope, Love
Nancy is a podcast I’ve had on my radar for ages but thanks to my friend Mark, I have an episode to share with you. This episode is about Mark’s friend Richard (and a little about Mark).
Richard lost his long-time partner and was now looking for love again at 61. After a lot of average dates, he needed a sign. And a sign he did get, a la Hello Dolly. I don’t care about spoiling the ending because you probably figured out that it all works out well.
Side note: In all my years on this planet, I never knew the story of Hello Dolly. Even I’m surprised by that fact.
Podcast: Nancy - Give Me A Sign (31 mins)

I Am On This Newsletter
The Skimmer’s Hook: I just made fun of myself but you won’t understand why unless you listen to this episode about insults.
Listen if you like: Disses, Janks, Burns, Shade
Yo mama’s so fat, she doesn’t subscribe to this newsletter. Ok, I know that makes no sense at all but I was never good at those jokes. That’s not to say I don’t find them hysterical but I don’t have the smarts to pull them off.
But now, I have one I will tell to everyone I know for the rest of my life. It’s the VERY FIRST joke as soon as you hit play.
This episode is not just people telling jokes though. It explains the differences of insults across the globe. It also gives some fantastic examples of black twitter. And then it gives us a history lesson.
Podcast: Surprisingly Awesome - Insults (41 mins)

What Kind Of Cow Doesn’t Eat Grass?
The Skimmer’s Hook: If you have young kids at home, get them off the tele and have them make a podcast!
Listen if you like: Kids, Podcasts, Podcasts By Kids
Do you have kids at home? Do they listen to podcasts? I’m coming at you with a podcast AND an article (see Extra Hot Sauce).
This new kid's show from Pineapple Street Studios is collecting podcasts from kids from all over the world while they are stuck at home like the rest of us. It also has some advice from a soap doctor.
You may think this show is not for you but trust me when I say there are more than a few moments that will put a big smile on your face especially the opening interview with the host’s son and the right and wrong answers to the cow joke.
Podcast: The Kids Are All… Home - Everyone Thinks This Stinks (Scroll to episode 1) (17 mins)

Extra Hot Sauce
My friend Erik wrote this A Survival Guide for Parents: Introducing Podcasts Into Homeschooling for Bello Collective. (8 min read according to Medium.)
By now, most of you are probably Zoom experts. But, if you want to make sure you look your best while in your boxer shorts, listen to these tips from Talking Tech. (Scroll down to April 11th ep) (7 mins)
