The instructor from Ireland thought Keisha was the Canadian. By the end of the week they were roommates, they had walked through the middle of the Pride parade in business attire with no plan, bought flower headbands to blend in, received a free bag of Oreos that tasted exactly the same, gone to Grand Central Station at midnight looking for gluten-free donuts that were obviously closed, and picked up a Manhattan manhole cover on Fifth Avenue at midnight because nobody else was doing anything about it.There was something on their hands afterward. It was not good.In this episode Jon and Keisha introduce the Kingston Ontario stop and the woman who makes it worth crossing an international border. Alex is a dental professional, a brilliant clinician, an online course creator, and Keisha's professional soul sister across seven years of conferences, COVID pivots, and calls that were supposed to be an hour and ran until the iPad died. The Kingston ceremony will be barefoot, off-grid, in the trees. It is the hippie wedding. It is nothing like a bourbon warehouse or a waterpark and that is entirely the point.Plus the Zoom call where everyone finds out which ceremony was the legal one, and a breathing exercise that involves walking around the couch until you feel like you are going to pass out.JK LOL Storytime is one take, no breaks, no script — just two people telling the truth about their lives. New episodes every Thursday.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/RO1YDeoXJNQDq9AXTdid7bxGXKRGeY3D9s182Q0jkME/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS81ZTIx/NmNmYWE0NDlmMjJi/MTk5MWYyZTkyN2Uz/NzU5My5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
