Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you wanted to be an effective ally or advocate for a co-worker, but when a situation arises that seems like you should be doing or saying something, you worry that you won't do the most helpful thing? That your actions or words might actually make things worse for your co-worker? How do you know you're actually helping? This is a dilemma that comes up a lot in emails from listeners. And in the Before Times, we talked to someone about exactly this question. Jeannie considers this guest a total expert in workplace advocacy and allyship....largely because she advocated for Jeannie when they worked together, and for a bunch of their colleagues. Her name is http://phyl.com/ (Phyllis Fletcher), an author and editor who lives here in Seattle. you've probably heard her name before - she's in Season 3 credits for providing expert editorial consulting. Eula and Jeannie originally talked with Phyllis for bonus episode for Season 2. But her tactics feel more relevant than ever. So we wanted to make sure everyone can hear what she has to say.

We've got a special episode this week for Mother's Day, featuring the staff wives! Pastor Matt sits down with Pastor Bonnie, Stephanie Huff, Phyllis Fletcher, and Heather Philhower as they talk about parenting, motherhood, and Pastor Jeff's Sunday sermon.
More than half of the U.S. population over age 12 has now listened to a podcast, according to Edison Research. The medium has fundamentally altered the landscape for audio content, liberating and empowering both listeners and creators. And big acquisitions such as Spotify’s purchase of Gimlet Media signal that the business of podcasting is coming of age, too. But there remains an economic gulf that some entrepreneurs and investors see as an opportunity. Ad spending on podcasting is around $500 million, by some estimates, but that compares to $17 billion or more for radio. So where is podcasting heading next? How will speech recognition, smart speakers and other innovations change the landscape for podcasts? Should you start your own show? Could you make any money if you did? On this episode of the GeekWire Podcast, we’re going meta. It’s a podcast about podcasting: a discussion with podcast producers, media vets and startup entrepreneurs, recorded on stage at the GeekWire Summit this fall. Phyllis Fletcher, the senior editor for podcasts at American Public Media, who has worked on shows including APM’s hit business podcast, Spectacular Failures. You may recognize her voice from her previous work as a reporter and editor at KUOW Radio in Seattle. (You can check out all of her tweets from the GeekWire Summit here.) Steve Henn, who leads content strategy for audio news at Google. He’s a journalist turned tech entrepreneur who left a career in radio to co-found a digital media startup that was acquired by Google in 2017. You may recognize his voice from his work in public radio as a correspondent on such shows as Marketplace, Planet Money and NPR. David Payne, the president of Rainstream Media and the co-creator, author and executive producer of its flagship show, “Somebody Somewhere,” a true crime podcast. A lawyer and former federal prosecutor, his career in media has included roles as Chief Digital Officer for Gannett/USA Today, and senior vice president and GM of CNN Digital. Amira Valliani is the CEO and co-founder of Glow, a Seattle startup and Pioneer Square Labs spinout that is building a subscription, monetization and distribution platform for podcasts. She served as a communications adviser in the Obama White House and as a speechwriter for then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. She got started in podcasting with her own local politics show in Cambridge, Mass.
Bill Radke reviews some of our favorite stories of the year with Seattle writer and author of Like a Mother, Angela Garbes, host of Too Beautiful to Live and Live Wire, Luke Burbank, and senior editor at APM Podcasts, Phyllis Fletcher.
This Special Has Everything! Join the TSHE Family (including Phyllis Fletcher!) for a special Thanksgiving 2019 edition of the show.
This week, Luke went to the pizza convention, Andrew went all around Seattle, and Phyllis Fletcher made a triumphant return to TBTL. After hearing about naked hot tubs, the last Busterblocker, and how Luke “had” to eat meat, we hash through the interesting topics and ask some questions. Is Mt. Constitution really much of a mountain? Why do we assume that body-confident naked guys must be old? Which one of us is willing to sacrifice their body to test driverless cars? As far as our own business goes, we’re working through some exciting new concepts for podcasts that we plan to offer to Jewel Case Media as soon as we’ve gotten caught up on our Nineties movie franchises. Mike shares tells some stories about the soap opera that is prison sports. Meredith once got into trouble for NOT taking her clothes off in public. Ann identifies a surprising parallel between TBTL and Jeopardy. Plus, movie rentals for cults, life goals for fish, and the moral objection to cheese.

Unlike Luke’s boat, Hillary, Bobby, Ann and Mike are firing on all cylinders, and are ready to co-captain a two-hour pleasure cruise through the latest week of TBTL. Because this week, we are all Jerrys. (The only person happier than us is probably Kevin O’Brien.) Plus, Mike tells his Credit Card Debt Silver Lining Alert™, Ann shares her recent kitchen scare (don’t worry, the cookies for the picnic are OK), Hillary seems a little too happy to be down a kid for the week, and Bobby channels a hybrid of Phyllis Fletcher and Rap Master Maurice. Some additional notes: COME TO THE PICNIC on Friday! Check out this chiropractor commercial by Rhett & Link if you can handle the pops and cracks. Check out Crime Writers On for actual discussion of the S-Town lawsuit Check out Hit Parade because it’s awesome We love you, Kathleen!

For her Phinal Phyllis Phave Phriday, Phyllis Fletcher joins Mike for a listen back to times when alleged “woo girl” Jen Flash Andrews was thrown out of restaurants, and in one instance, given up by a tell-tale pen. Mike shares some of his own delinquent dining behavior through the years (with apologies to Hoagy’s Corner), and hits Fletch with one more round of his patent-pending gotcha segment, While We Have You. Remember: Proceed with caution when retrieving your ill-gotten 100 Grand Bar from Bill Radke’s bathrobe pocket. You have been warned. This episode features TBTL clips from the third hour of Feb. 3, 2009, and the third hour of April 3, 2009.

Through the magic of advanced planning, Phyllis Fletcher joins Bobby for a listen back to a pair of Luke’s cringeworthy stories from 2009. Between the awkward phone call from his alleged fiancée’s best friend, to the woman who insisted on helping him pay for some Dick’s, these gems from the radio days will really make you think about the perception of people around you, and that moment in time when the truth sets in. Not to be outdone, Bobby shares his own pregnant pause, and we break down the perils of a casual dress code.

Deep in the depths of both their souls and an undisclosed downstairs half-bath, unabashed 90 Day Fiancé fan Phyllis Fletcher joins Nice Lady Christy Wise on a trip down to the Shameber, where Luke stalks an old on-air co-host, Jen imitates a supercool indie-rocker, and Sean watches the Wayans brothers in whiteface. Don’t worry, there’s enough Torchy’s queso and syrup-soaked hot dog buns for everyone.

Sometimes wet underwear is not your fault. It's not always pee, OK? But sometimes it is. This week Phyllis reports live from Lopez Island, just across from Mike Frizzell's ancestral plot on Mud Bay. Mud Bay would make a serviceable euphemism for a poo pile, and speaking of euphemisms for excretory events, we hear the best TBTL-ism for peeing your pants, first uttered by Jen at Jesus Creek. Plus Luke's poo-reka moment inspires us to recount accidental poo discoveries of our own. Christy "Crap Columbus" Wise, Mike "Magellan of Mud" Frizzell and Phyllis Fletcher, the Fecal de Fuca, on this month's Phyllis Phave edition of Little Red Bandwagon.

Bobby, Meredith and Ann are ready to check you in for your pod-stay here at the reasonably appointed Hotel Walsh. Inexplicably in the heart of the Scottsdale Stag District, amenities include complimentary 24-hour DJ service, bespoke Bluetooth Zune docks in every room, and ample alleyways for abandoning undonatable but semi-functional refuse. Our gift shop features an extensive collection of stuff you wish you owned in the ‘90s, and our on-site Vietnamese soup shop includes on-call acquaintances always ready to take your confession. Please note: Snacks are required every 45 minutes for anyone under the age of 18. While legally unenforceable, regular hand-washing is encouraged. And for the love of god, wear a damn helmet. It took all our willpower not to dedicate the entire episode to that. Phyllis Fletcher is PRNDI’s Editor of the Year. The Top Gun Anthem is ridiculous. And Andrea Ballard’s podcast, Preheated, is pretty great.

You’re sent to cover breaking news – a natural disaster or a large-scale accident or crime. You don’t have much time, or much warning. How do you bring back sound-rich, interesting tape, that makes listeners perk up their ears? The Northwest News Network’s Phyllis Fletcher manages breaking news coverage as an editor for reporters throughout the urban and rural Northwest. Phyllis walks us through a triage system she’s developed to partner with her reporters, and plays excellent examples of telling breaking news stories in sound.

Phan Phavorite Phyllis Fletcher takes a break from trust falls and ice breakers with her team in Portland to share not one but TWO TBTL moments from Decembers past! One features Jen (the cake is a lie), one features Luke (who’s too young for a decaf nightcap), and both raise a great question: why did I say that?! While We Have Her™, Phyllis also tells us what it was like in the newsroom on Election Night, from the cliché whiskey to her Reverse Driveway Moment. Plus, Mouth Sounds! Public Service Announcement: This episode features an occasional use of the word “moist,” in relation to Jen’s baking tips. You have been warned. In fact, as an apology, if you’re one of the first 20 people to send and email to littleredbandwagon (at) gmail (dot) com with the word “moist” in the subject line, Christy will send you an LRB sticker as soon as she finishes gagging. Thanks! This episode features TBTL clips from Dec. 8, 2008, hour 2 and Dec. 8, 2014, episode 1747.

On a Phletch Phaves Phryday we celebrate Phyllis Fletcher's second anniversary of being a Ten with the episode that hooked her: the TBTL obituary for Tom Magliozzi of Car Talk. Meredith, Mike and Phyllis connect the dots of the Car Talk Talk to reveal its subtext and elevate it as a pivotal moment in TBTL history, unbeknownst as it was to Tens back in 2014. In an LRB Bonus Track we hear the radio story Luke helped Phyllis produce as an intern, about racism that happens on the phone. It's historic and folkloric...it's this Friday's LRB.

There’s nothing better than a great origin story. For her October Phlashback, Phyllis Fletcher takes Mike and Bobby back to the day Luke shared with the world the note left on his backward-facing car in the maritime village of Port Townsend, WA, that brought a colorful addition to the TBTL lexicon. And while we have her, Phyllis kindly takes the boys (who have two journalism degrees and zero journalism jobs between them) through how her awesome day job works. Our own notable parking stories include public humiliation, residential scolding and municipal theft—but at least none of us choked in class while trying to get the Led out. This episode Phlashes back to October 24, 2014, Don’t Be A Dombass.

Ann Lundholm is flanked by TBTL line-of-succession members Phyllis Fletcher and Stu the StuBot Neuman at Black Sheep Coal Fired Pizza in St. Paul for a meta look back at times TBTL has taped live in restaurants. (Insert Kelly O drop here.) Over beers and a half No. 4 (Meatball, Ricotta & Garlic) / half No. 5 (Fennel Sausage, Hot Salami, Onion & Cracked Green Olives) pie, the gang breaks down the spectrum of embarrassment from Luke to Andrew, builds an impassioned defense of Arby’s (except for the sad one), and even slips in a plug for Stu’s podcast The Sportive, your leading source for fan-perspective, semi-produced hot takes on Minnesota sports. Here’s hoping the boss at Black Sheep doesn’t go on the internet all the time.

Bobby, Ann and Meredith are tangled up in lanyard talk as they recap TBTL’s week at (or at least adjacent to) the PRPD conference in Phoenix, and it seems no amount of Alaska Board Room soup or nearly nude hotel room T25 is going to give Luke or Andrew Bill Murray-level confidence. Also, Ann recommends the movie Breach, Christy asks us to tell you about Jesus Creek Mysteries, and we all agree FedEx is the worst. This episode also includes a preview of our upcoming Friday show featuring Phyllis Fletcher in Minnesota with StuBot and Ann.

Grab your travel mug of white wine and your fresh-ass backpack, because it’s time to follow Meredith, Bobby and Phyllis Fletcher back to September 2008 for a two-clip phlashback that will make you love Jen and Jason more than you already do. (If that’s possible.) Jason commits a fashion faux pas, Jen abides, and we all learn valuable lessons. Plus, our own drinking-on-the-job stories, hot takes on the abysmal state of public schools, and one of us was recently touched inappropriately at a semi-public pool. Will finding out which one of us it was surprise you? Si señor(e)! This episode includes clips from TBTL episodes 171 (Monday, Sept. 15, 2008) and 175 (Friday, Sept. 19, 2008).

It’s time to stop debating cement vs concrete, poring over Pod Dog’s Instagram feed, and viewing questionable helicopter news crew footage, because we’ve got this week’s roundup of last week’s TBTL. Christy, Mike and Ann are here to guide you through the ins and outs of another week of Luke’s questionable diet choices, Andrew’s ever-growing persnickety-ness, and the joy that is Phyllis Fletcher appreciating a well-made Bloody Mary. In other news, Mike has bugs, Christy had a bug, and Ann is bugged by the fact that Luke thinks Tchaikovsky is a Baroque composer.
