HERD: the Podcast "PRESSURE"
<p>This spring we held our first “HERD: Women’s Sports Edition” in partnership with Meet Minneapolis. The show was at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, and the venue (“only” 275 seats) sold out in 3 hours. Doh! We need a much bigger venue to get together and talk about women in sport next time. Noted. The theme was PRESSURE, the stories were wonderful, and the crowd was effin’ awesome. So, of course, we pulled from that event for this podcast. </p><p>PRESSURE—it’s a force we all navigate, and nowhere is it felt more keenly than in the world of sports. In Episode 5 of HERD: the Podcast, we explore the thrill of competition, the joy of team dynamics, and the unexpected moments that define our grit. From the tampon chord hanging out of Gretchen’s nostril 30 seconds in, to Linda’s unexpected Ironman birthday challenge, to Lizz’s minty-fresh journey to the finish line. This is a great show! Enjoy.</p><p>Regarding the Podcast, if you are enjoying the podcast do us a fave. Please rate and review it if you are on Apple Podcasts, or tap the “+” if on Spotify. If you are interested in sponsoring a host-read ad for your business or organization on an upcoming show, please email us directly at info@youareherd.org for rates and details. </p><p>In other news, we are really looking forward to our live event next week, July 14, HERD: DETOUR at the Parkway Theater in Minneapolis. This one is sold out, but keep an eye on our website as our 2026 schedule is filling in with lots of shows— look for a special edition at CHS Field on Oct 27, a second Women Sports Edition on Nov 13, as well as the announced shows at the O’Shaughnessy in September AND December!</p><p>Happy listening!</p><p>Gretchen and Amy</p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.

HERD: the Podcast "BUSTED" (V1)
<p>It’s podcast release day! When we recorded “BUSTED”, we immediately had to add “V1” to the title because we were reminded that BUSTED stories are kinda the greatest. And who hasn’t been busted? So, expect even more podcasts on this theme in the near future.</p><p>In S1 E4 (V1), Gretchen envisions an accordion playing version of herself, Marchel Lea steals an entire marijuana bush, and Melinda is convinced that plaid upholstery camouflages barf. So, there you have it. Enjoy.</p><p>On a side note, tickets for the July 14 “DETOUR” show sold out in 4 days! Can’t wait to see some of you at the Parkway Theater in Minneapolis next month. We are excited about the theme DETOUR because we know so many twists and turns (pun intended) will be taken. And as we have learned; the unplanned, the unexpected, and frankly, the unadvisable, often make for the best stories. </p><p>Do YOU want to tell a story on an upcoming podcast? The next episodes will be recorded on a Sunday afternoon in July (TBD) and the themes include PRESSURE and OUTSIDE, if that conjures something up! Let us know at info@youareherd.org - don’t be shy, it’s so fun!</p><p>Let’s do this!</p><p>Gretchen and Amy</p><p></p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.

HERD: the Podcast "Boss"
<p>In this latest episode, our mini HERD claims, shapes, and owns the theme BOSS. This one is for all of you who have been told you are ‘too bossy,’ it’s for those who self-identify as a ‘boss-ass b***h,’ and mostly, it’s for those who have shrieked, YOU’RE NOT THE BOSS OF ME! to someone who was cramping their vibe.</p><p>On S1 E3, Amy survives (yet another) collision, Anne Star takes charge (and vodka shots) in Russia, and Melissa organizes her family with love (and color-coded instructions.) It’s good stuff. Feedback from y’all after the first two shows was “more chatter,” so you’ll find this one is a bit more chatty. And still a digestible 25-minute respite from whatever it is you are doing.</p><p>Two more things:</p><p>1- <strong>THANK YOU</strong>! Our “Let’s Launch HERD; the Podcast Fundraiser” was both very affirming and very successful. <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youareherd.org/podcast"><strong>We are so grateful for those able and willing to step up for this campaign</strong></a> <strong>and help establish a baseline of resources to cover expenses and let us get established</strong>. HERD: the Podcast is a new platform for us to share well-earned stories and reflect with love and empathy. We are settling into this mode, it just keeps getting better, and we can’t wait for you to hear ALL the shows! Thank you deeply for your generosity, you lovely HERDmates.</p><p>2- <strong>OUR NEXT</strong> <strong>LIVE SHOW TICKETS GO ON SALE NEXT MONDAY</strong>! We will once again be taking the stage at the beautiful Parkway Theater in Minneapolis -this time on July 14th, 7pm. The theme is <strong>DETOUR</strong><strong>!</strong> Podcast Badasses and Benefactors, as well as HERD Founders,* will get their message for first dibs on June 13, tickets go on sale to the rest-of-us on Monday, June 15. </p><p>Enjoy “BOSS”, dear women.</p><p>Amy and Gretchen</p><p>(*Note: this is the last pre-sale perk for the OGs. )</p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.
