hi everyone! Welcome to the Verbally Disastrous podcast!! Melissa and I just released S1, E3: Gorilla Glue Woman this evening. It is now available on Spotify, YouTube, and Soundcloud. We discussed the recently popular story on Tessica Brown and her debacle with Gorilla Glue spray. We have another episode coming where we are trying some new small bottles of alcohol and rating them. It should be amusing for you all since it is a mess and none of it is rehearsed. Episode #4 will be released soon. We have some other upcoming episodes coming as well. Here is S1, E3: Gorilla Glue Woman on YouTube: https://youtu.be/7d42JIgMNKg As always, we thank you for stopping by to check out our content. Let us know your thoughts on our latest episode? I wish you a great weekend that is warm, dry, and safe! Cheers! Leslie M.

hi everyone! I just helped my co-host Melissa launch her YouTube channel!! I made sure to be her very first subscriber and she is now connected to the Verbally Disastrous channel. Believe it or not, I am the more tech savvy person of the duo. She has the Verbally Disastrous logo in white so there is a distinction between the two co-hosts. My logo is yellow and where the podcast episodes will be launched on the Verbally Disastrous YouTube & Spotify profiles. Melissa will post her own collection of short videos, dog vlogs, family and friends moments, and her own creative home improvement projects. Melissa and I have various art projects where we will be trying to sell them via the Hot Mess Creations page. Melissa's latest house has some upcoming projects where she is going to create slideshow from her photos and discuss the process. Of course, when I am around I will also document the project's process and post a slideshow to my page. I went ahead and posted her fi

  hi everyone! I just released a video where I shared " My GROSS Pancake Dream " video on YouTube. After having the dream, I reached out and posed the question on Quora to invite dream interpretation. The responses ran the gamut with the quality, theme, humor, or lack thereof. I am posting the full responses on here so that you may read in their entirety. As always, feedback is welcomed. I found them to be very humorous and some savage in nature. Some responses were rather actual serious with the delivery. I appreciated the insight with the wide range of feedback. Here is the YouTube video where I spoke about my gross pancake dream: https://youtu.be/g_AmVuPfe3E Do you have a dream interpretation that was not mentioned in any of these attached responses? I appreciate when people take the time to really dive into a question and work to analyze the details to come to a logical conclusion. Some of these responses were very inciteful. A few responses were as serious as a

 hi everyone! I want to share some podcast topics that my 15-year old son Johnny wants to discuss as part of some future podcast topics. Nicknamed Jho, he wants to do some research on some current events. From time to time, my eldest, he is 26-years old, son Tom will join us in on the discussion. They are both looking forward to working on these creative projects with me for the podcast. Additionally, Jho plans to work on some comedy skits to be released on YouTube. I am looking forward to viewing Jho's creativity behind the camera now that he is older than his previous projects. I may be biased but I find my sons to be very humorous. Here are some topics that Johnny is interested in discussing with his brother and I: Johnny's old #ConstructionTales book promo skits when he was 8-9 years old. Robinhood- The trading app and the 20-year old young man who committed suicide over his account issue. Videos via Smosh- A humorous channel on YouTube that he grew up watching. Jame

  Hi Everyone! In my previous post, I shared my son Johnny's creativeness with some of his promo videos for my book #ConstructionTales when I first released it in 2013-videos were created around 2013-2014. The book is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, iTunes, and Audible. Johnny came up with the work out video concept. I was working the camera while Johnny took the lead and created the promotional book video. Maybe there was one or two re-takes with the video. I keep telling Johnny that he is very creative, sharp, and should work on trying to launch an amateur stand up routine. Both of my sons are smart and creative- they are both left handed. He just needs to believe it. Therefore, I have to keep saying it until he believes it. I have to keep encouraging him to develop his projects and foster his creativity. Here is his Work-Out Johnny" YouTube video: https://youtu.be/LnbPpPEJOno Let me know if you like the video? If you have any video ideas, let me know.

  hi everyone! I figured I would share two funny videos that my son Johnny, when he was about age 8-9 years old, did as a promo for my book #ConstructionTales that is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, iTunes, and Audible. For anyone new reading this post, I wrote about my 5.5 year apprenticeship as a female electrician in New York. I wrote about my journey and the wild & lawless co-workers that I met and worked with along the way. I worked in construction back in the 1990's where drugs, booze, and a filthy unfiltered mouth was the gold standard on each job. I was very young (got into the union at 20 years old) and impressionable thinking back. I learned very quick how to survive on the jobsite with my potty mouth and become a craftswoman along the way. I would get a compliment for my pipe work and I would say, "not bad for a girl huh?" I feel like I was born for construction and working with the guys. As I have gotten older and now work in the office, I

hi everyone!! I am sharing that, as of recent, I have reached 100 Posts on my Word Press blog/website!!!  I made the switch about 6 weeks ago from here on Blogger.  Blogger is still my back up dancer- just in case the $hit hits the fan on Word Press.   You have many choices on the internet to read content from around the globe. I am honored that you have stopped by my page to read and share a laugh or two...or three damn it! :P My two old blogs here on Blogger have been around- the first blog since 2013 and the second since 2017.  As of January 2021, I made the change and shift my focus to blog over on Word Press.  Yes, Word Press is my main dude.  Blogger is now my two side dudes- sorry fellas.  Yup- my old Go Daddy website is my baby daddy that I no longer even deal with- "he" needs to figure it out on his own without my money.  For some reason, that doesn't sound very prim and proper.  I brought over a lot of content from my Blogger site and brought it over to Word Pre

hi everyone! I am sharing a slide show of one of my many renovation projects.  I recently found renovation photos in an old computer so I plan to put them together in future slide shows.  I kick myself for not better documenting other projects over the years.  I learned how to use the #Animoto program to create a slide show of my photos of my 2013 renovation project.  I started that project in June of 2013 after parting ways with a long term relationship.  This work was done in the evenings and weekends when I had free time to work on it.  I  I loaded an audio to the slide show so I can talk about the project.  I officially built a sheetrock buddy, affectionately called Juan Carlos Santana, and hung rock on the ceiling solo for the first time during that project.  My sons made guest appearances to help with cleanup since video games are more important.  They know that I am capable of doing my own work- they don't even bat an eye when I talk about my home improvement projects.  I do

hi Everyone! I am sharing two old videos from 2012 where my son Tom scares our dogs Daisy and Otis with a clown mask: Video #1: https://youtu.be/9lsKKCtmRgc Video #2: https://youtu.be/XB23Ra1oeg4 Have a great week!

hi everyone!   I am sharing a work prank on a coworker, back in 2012, that I got in on with another coworker back when I still worked with the tools. I had forgotten that we pulled the prank- after all, I have been involved with so many in my career. We had a coworker that used to easily drift off to sleep while at work. A plan at his expense was hatched. At first we joked about having an air horn app on the phone. At the time, back in 2012, I don't think we had one that would be as effective. Why not bring one to work?? We found the opportunity and we decided to strike! I operated as the camera person while my coworker got within ear shot and let loose on the horn. It was super hard to contain the laughter. We had just challenged an apprentice to a 30-pack White Castle Challenge on the jobsite- we have that on film as well. Compared to modern camera phones, the films from 2012 are not as good. However, I will share them nonetheless. Here is the airhorn prank that we p

hello everyone!  I was digging into old files in a retired computer and stumbled on some old video gems. My Siamese cat (may she R.I.P.) named Bootsie used to play with my two Jack Russell dogs named Daisy and Otis. whenever we used to take the dogs on a walk, my cat would follow to mess around with them. It was super precious to see them now that my Bootsie had to be put down. I remember Otis finding Bootsie when she was dying of kidney failure. Otis was nudging her trying to figure out what was wrong with her. She jumped up to greet him but then got back down into her previous pose in bed. Animals are a joy despite a lot of hair and messes to clean up after them. Animals are the joys of the childhood of my children as well as my adult memories. So far, I have found, despite being grainy, three cute videos of the animals interacting to share on YouTube. Here they are: Clip #1: https://youtu.be/7BVNuTYrZwM Clip #2: https://youtu.be/qP4r-PNR_i8 Clip #3: https://youtu.be/tYVBvm

 Hello everyone! I participated in a survey for a Canadian college on gender-diversity and invisible barriers for women in construction.  I screenshotted it so that I can share with the readers.  Check it out and let me know what you think? As I had shared previously, I have joined Reddit as of yesterday. There are way too many rules in that community that I have not yet figured out. It sounds like you need some time on the forum before you are allowed to speak. You need karma points. I have no idea about selling coins- not interested in that mess. I typed in some key words in an attempt to connect with a community of either like minded folks, people with similar interests, or fellow women in the trades. Whenever I type in certain key phrases pertaining to women in construction, I brace myself for the crass feedback. I am honestly surprised with the warm reception that I have stumbled upon about women in the trades in construction. While many people make bad assumptions about w

  hi everyone! As I was sifting on Quora, I stumbled upon a question that jumped out at me. The posed question had zero responses. Therefore, I decided to jump on it like white on rice. I wanted to share my take on a question posed on Quora. Every once in awhile you feel compelled to respond to a query. Well, here is that moment where I felt compelled to give an answer on #Quora about #strong #women and the meaning thereof. This very well may become a future podcast topic. I know questions like this flush out the men vs women comments. I find the whole gender hating debate to be frustrating and not necessary. Everyone has strengths and weaknesses that they bring to different environments. I happen to be very physically and mentally strong. I know not all people share the same qualities and that is okay. I used to be more unforgiving and hard on people who were not sharp and lazy in nature. Don't get me wrong, I am still not a fan of lazy people. I chose to respond to th

hi everyone! I have always heard of Reddit. However, I have never ventured onto the website that was created 15 years ago. Perhaps I should have during the launch of my book in 2013. However, it is enough managing the social media platforms that I do have. I decided to kick it up a notch to get more exposure for the podcast. So here I am whoring out the podcast to another platform!! LOL! I am not sure how savage the Reddit community is -as of yet. Then again, they may be a glorious group that I have been missing out on for my entire life. Nonetheless, we are going to take this for a spin on the Reddit internet highway to see how much traffic we can generate. On the surface, it looks like the community can vote you off the island or let you stay on as a survivor. I need to study it further before making that determination. Of course, I was able to score  u/VerballyDisastrous  as my domain name which is  WINNING !! My subpage name is  Leslie@VerbDisastrous  in case you go check it out. I
