Laura House: Dragon Slayer: This week’s tale is less of a tiny victory than it is an epic poem. It’s the story of how Laura House had to overcome her fears so she could slay the dragon that threatened–in a tiny way–her, and everyone she worked with. Annabelle finds a way to make House’s triumph seem even grander. Plus, an Australian listener calls into the show to explain why her 2021 calendar is her favorite thing that Laura predicted unintentionally. by Tiny Victories
