Beschrijving

Today’s episode was a little bit of everything: We talked about the joy of little free libraries — and how I basically had the emotional equivalent of finding a Gucci bag at a thrift store when I stumbled across the perfect beach read sitting inside one. Then we fully debriefed the family vacation: the weird little things families do that somehow make them lovable and uniquely them, the quiet gratitude of being included in someone else’s family traditions, and the universal truth that parents absolutely do not know how to call an Uber. And somewhere in the middle of all of it, we identified one of the worst possible responses to the question: “what do you want to do?” Because nobody actually wants to hear: “I don’t care, we can do whatever you want to do.” In this episode: * random Tiff trivia and life tidbits * the magic of little free libraries * finding the perfect beach read * family vacation observations and lovable chaos * parents trying to use Uber * and the answer nobody actually wants to hear when making plans This Morning, with Tiff Potter is short daily companion audio — rooted in Cincinnati, made for wherever you are. If you want company, press play.

This Morning: The Golden Girls Were Right

First things first—if you hear the air conditioner kicking on in the background... no you didn't. We're still living that window-unit life over here, and this apartment has officially entered "it's hotter inside than outside" season. Then we got into a trend that's starting to catch on, and honestly... it might not be the worst idea. More and more young adults are moving in with retirees—not just to save money, but to help combat loneliness on both sides. Basically... The Golden Girls had it figured out before the rest of us. We talked about whether this could actually become the future of housing, what we can learn from intergenerational friendships, and why maybe the answer to rising rent and isolation isn't building more apartments... it's building more community. In this episode: * surviving summer with window AC units * why my apartment has become its own climate zone * the surprising housing trend bringing generations together * The Golden Girls might have been onto something * and why community could be the answer to more than just high rent This Morning, with Tiff Potter is short daily companion audio—rooted in Cincinnati, made for wherever you are.

This Morning: Is a Fourth of July Wedding Selfish?

Today's episode started with a debate I genuinely wasn't prepared to have: Is getting married on the Fourth of July... kind of white trash? The internet had thoughts after rumors started swirling about Taylor Swift potentially choosing Independence Day for her wedding, and naturally, we had to weigh in. We talked about holiday weddings, family traditions, and whether your wedding date says anything about you—or if the internet just loves having opinions about absolutely everything. Because somehow even choosing a day to get married has become a full-blown public debate. In this episode: * the internet's latest Taylor Swift obsession * the Fourth of July wedding debate * holiday weddings: genius or terrible idea? * whether wedding dates have a "vibe" * and why the internet can turn literally anything into a controversy This Morning, with Tiff Potter is short daily companion audio—rooted in Cincinnati, made for wherever you are.

This Morning: You’re Probably Better at Sex Than You Think

Today's episode was all about firsts, friendships, and a conversation that might make you feel a little better about yourself. I debriefed my first time going out for drinks with my new coworkers—navigating the unwritten rules, trying to remember everyone's names, and realizing that making new friends as an adult deserves way more credit than it gets. Then we shifted gears into a topic that's been on my mind lately. I came across an article that started with a question a lot of people secretly wonder: What if you're bad at sex? The conversation wasn't about perfection or performance. It was about the myths we believe, the pressure people put on themselves, and why the answer is probably a lot more encouraging than you think. In this episode: * my first coworker happy hour * the awkward fun of making new friends as an adult * why so many people worry they're "bad" at sex * what the research actually says * and giving ourselves a little more grace—in and out of the bedroom This Morning, with Tiff Potter is short daily companion audio—rooted in Cincinnati, made for wherever you are.

The Morning: The Refills Are Free

Today’s episode was a little summer check-in from both sides of the weather spectrum. Here in Cincinnati, the weather has been gorgeous — the kind that makes you feel like you have to get outside before it changes its mind. Meanwhile, France is dealing with the kind of heat that makes you rethink every outfit, every plan, and possibly your entire personality. We also talked about the World Cup stirring up a very specific kind of American nostalgia — the flags, the chants, the sudden soccer experts, the collective “wait, are we doing this now?” energy that seems to show up every few years. And then we got into one of America’s most underrated cultural contributions: free refills. Apparently people have opinions. Strong ones. Because once you realize free refills are not a universal experience everywhere, it makes you look at that second Diet Coke a little differently. In this episode: * gorgeous summer weather in Cincinnati * the brutal heat happening in France * World Cup nostalgia and American soccer energy * why everyone suddenly becomes patriotic during international sports * and the surprisingly emotional debate around free refills This Morning, with Tiff Potter is short daily companion audio — rooted in Cincinnati, made for wherever you are.

This Morning: I GOT MY FIRST PAYCHECK!

It's been a few days, so today felt a little like a catch-up session. I checked in on life, work, and the ongoing adjustment to this new schedule and new chapter. I'm still finding my rhythm, still learning, still feeling a little behind some days — but I'm also trying to give myself some grace. Not every transition has to be mastered immediately. We also took a tour around the internet this weekend. The World Cup has people paying attention to soccer who haven't thought about soccer in years, TSA is once again begging people to behave like functioning adults in airport security lines, and somehow one condiment has become the thing everyone is suddenly obsessed with. And because summer is officially summering, I gave a full review of the movies I've seen in theaters so far this season — the hits, the surprises, and whether leaving the house and paying movie theater prices was actually worth it. In this episode: * adjusting to life after the first few weeks of a new job * giving yourself grace during transitions * World Cup fever * TSA's latest public service announcements * the condiment everyone suddenly loves * and my summer movie report card so far This Morning, with Tiff Potter is short daily companion audio — rooted in Cincinnati, made for wherever you are.
