It’s not easy to arrive anywhere in formalwear by 9am.
But let this be known about
and me: We don’t shy away from hard things. Including ties and sequin on a Saturday morning.A couple weeks back, we ask the “Whatevers”—our amazing Live audience members—what we should do to celebrate reaching milestones in our Summer Pledge Drive. The first suggestion was that we should show up for The Daily Whatever in cocktail attire.
This week, we hit our first fundraising goal: 40 paid subscribers.
So today, we brought it. We showed up in formalwear. I wore rose gold sequin. Lawrence worn a lovely grey suit and tie. I even brought bubbly, in a bespoke, bedazzled “40” glass.
Then we told stories, including the adventure of how Lawrence and I were once sorta-married, and then sorta-divorced, and how I stole his special blessed red love candle and then met my husband. (I still feel bad about that.)
We were also joined by my bestie
, who was our 40th paid subscriber! Together we shared more stories of our storied past, gave advice, and all-around rejoiced in this milestone.Next stop: 50 paid subscribers! If we hit it, we’re gonna host a Live karaoke party and you’re all invited! And we’re already close, at 47 subs as of this writing. If you’d like to help get us over the line, here’s how you can support not only
