Daddy Tissues

I'm F*cking Doing This

Mon, 15 Jun 2026 04:00:00 -0400

I'm doing this. I am fucking doing this.

I just got divorced, turned 40, I have three kids, a lifetime of trauma, and a microphone I barely know how to use. I literally just learned how to post an Instagram story. I am completely unqualified — and somehow I know I'm the most qualified person on earth to do this show.

This is the first episode. It's about why: the lump in your throat when someone asks what's wrong. The husband fight that ends with you crying in a Target parking lot. Holding it together while someone gaslights you — and then getting called crazy the second you finally explode. The supermom on Instagram who secretly wants a week alone in a hospital. Twenty years as a hairstylist doing therapy with foils in women's heads. And the day 40 hit me like a smack in the face and I realized I had all the stuff — the degree, the wedding, the jawline, the trampoline — and had never once asked myself if I was okay.

To everyone who knows me and is currently having a panic attack: yes, Gina has a microphone. Everyone remain calm. I'm not here for revenge. I'm here for the truth — the kind that hurts coming out and then finally lets you breathe.

New episodes every Monday.

Grab your daddy tissues. Till next time, my queens. 🖤

The Roots

Mon, 15 Jun 2026 04:00:00 -0400

The show is called Daddy Tissues, so we might as well talk about the obvious: daddy issues. And mommy issues too — because let's be fair, everyone contributed, and I always give credit where it's earned.

I used to think "daddy issues" was just something people said about the girl with the glow-in-the-dark tongue ring who kept getting demerits from Sister Helen for her uniform skirt. Now that I'm 40, divorced, and hosting a podcast from my bedroom, I can tell you from deep in my soul: daddy issues are not a punchline. They are the root system. They are the wiring. They are the reason.

This episode is about what your childhood actually taught you about love — before you ever met the man you're crying over now. Why the smartest, most self-aware women keep choosing the same wound wearing a different face. And why being aware of the pattern is not the same thing as being free of it.

The Boiling Frog

Mon, 15 Jun 2026 04:00:00 -0400

After we lovingly blamed our fathers, their fathers, and our entire bloodline, let's talk about what happens when you finally decide you're done. Done with the men who are weather events — the ones who walk into your life and suddenly you need three emergency contacts and someone to hold your earrings.

So you put the fuckboy crack pipe down. You date the normal, everyday Joe. Your friends approve. You think: look at me healing and shit.

And then the water starts heating up. One degree at a time.

This episode is about the chaos that isn't loud. The nice guy. The covert narcissist. Being made to feel crazy so slowly you never notice the moment it started. And the real questions that tell you whether you're actually safe — or just less obviously in danger than last time.

New episodes every Monday.

Grab your daddy tissues. Till next time, my queens. 🖤

Let's Get High

Mon, 22 Jun 2026 11:30:00 -0400

If you want to give your daughters some kick-ass birth control, park them in a comfy chair with a blanket and tell them my story. But that's coming. Today is about the feeling that says "I want to fuck his face off" — otherwise known as chemistry.

You read every book. You went to therapy. You drank the Kool-Aid and carried around the giant embarrassing water bottle. And then he walks in with the right eyes and the right chaos, and it's like morphine-acid-kryptonite-crack straight into your veins. So what IS that? Love at first sight — or your childhood trauma being pushed through your bloodstream by the little mad scientist I lovingly call Mr. Trauma?

This one's about the most inconvenient truth in dating after divorce: danger feels incredible, butterflies might be a warning, and the high we chase is sometimes just a starved nervous system finally getting fed. But it's not a lecture about settling for the beige-wall guy. It's the real question: can love be electric AND safe?

New episodes every Monday.

White Trash

Mon, 06 Jul 2026 16:50:00 -0400

A couple of days ago my phone rang. My cousin — an amazing human, a very important person in my life — and I could tell by her voice something was off. Then came the words that always come right before a bomb drops: "I'm always hesitant to tell you these things because I don't want it to be hurtful."

My whole body was on fire before she'd even said it.

This is the episode where I'm real to the bone. The woman who felt like a second mother when I was growing up. The fallout that happened after my divorce. What it feels like when family love turns out to have terms and conditions — and what someone who helped raise me actually thinks about me and this podcast.

It's about truth, grief, family judgment, and what happens when someone attacks the packaging because they cannot attack the truth inside it.

Who Is Vicky?

Mon, 13 Jul 2026 19:50:00 -0400

I'm 17 years old, standing in an art supply store outside the city, talking to a boy I met five seconds ago. My mom is behind me going "Gina, stop." And I look this complete stranger dead in the eye and say: "Who is Vicky?"

What he said broke my heart into a million pieces for the very first time.

Welcome to Chapter 1. I told you I'd tell my story from the beginning, and I keep my promises. Time machine to Northeast Philly: the loving chaos, 70 lates a year, Sister Helen, the perfect-little-girl checklist. My dad's story — the part that's mine to tell. My first soulmate, who we're calling Coolio. The most important sentence in this episode: kids don't do what you say, they do what you allow. And the day 17-year-old me chose herself for the very first time.

It ends on the morning of my 18th birthday with a bombshell you are not ready for.

Every name in this story is changed. The people don't matter. The pattern matters.

New episodes every Monday.

Grab your daddy tissues. Till next time, my queens. 🖤

Get Out of Jail Free Card

Mon, 20 Jul 2026 16:55:00 -0400

I'm 18 years old and I'm sitting in a basket of dirty laundry. Not next to it. IN it. In my mother's cellar, following her around the house all day like a puppy, because I have something to tell her and I physically cannot get the words out.

Chapter 1 ended with one word on the morning of my 18th birthday: pregnant. This week you get the whole story. Five positive tests and a due date instead of a keg party. The get-out-of-jail-free card his sister put on the table — and the reason I couldn't take it: a psychic with a glass eye, a miracle baby, and my mother's voice from a random Tuesday in our kitchen. And then my mom turns around in that cold Northeast Philly cellar and says the two words I never got to say.

What comes after is nine months of everything falling apart in slow motion: a father who went silent, a boy who wasn't who I thought he was, one accidental phone call that told me everything, and a "perfect" family whose foundation I never checked before I built on it.

New episodes every Monday.

Today is a celebration. Pour yourself some champagne — I've reached the magical level of podcasting where people are angry about things I didn't say, names I didn't use, and jokes they've decided to treat like sworn testimony. So this one opens with a little fan mail: a toast to the haters, a quick word with God (we're boys, we get each other), and the one thing I need everybody to understand — you can love people and still tell the truth about what happened to you. Both things can be true at the same time.

Then we get back in the time machine. Chapter 2 ended with me going into labor at 18. This chapter is what came home from the hospital with me: a baby I loved more than my own life, and a relationship where I had to fight for permission to be my own son's mother. The flowers that vanished to a house I never agreed to live in. The 3 a.m. calls. The beginning of the pattern that would run the next sixteen years.

The Battleground

Mon, 03 Aug 2026 13:00:00 -0400

This is the chapter I almost didn't tell.

Last chapter ended on a normal fall night in Northeast Philly — leaves in the orange pumpkin bags, mac and cheese on the stove, a kiss on my son's head before I left for the gym. And then my phone rang. My actual next-door neighbor, completely out of breath: "Your son got hit by a car."

I thought he was messing with me. He wasn't. And when I asked "Is he okay?" — over and over — he wouldn't answer me. There is no way to explain where your mind goes when somebody won't answer that question.

This is the story of that night and the eleven days that followed. The ambulance that appeared out of nowhere like God dropped it in front of me and said "follow that." The phone call from HER — the get-out-of-jail-free sister — that I can still hear word for word twenty years later. Holding my baby's hand on a stretcher. And the waiting room scene that looked like a Jerry Springer episode.

New episodes every Monday.

The Wrong B*tch

Wed, 12 Aug 2026 22:20:00 -0400

You know what's really fucking annoying? Growth. I've grown enough. Every time you become a stronger, wiser woman, God goes "Amazing, she learned that lesson — let's absolutely fuck her week up and see if it stuck." I'm tired. Give me Botox and peace.

This episode was supposed to be the next chapter of my story. For the first time in ten weeks, I couldn't do it — because my brain couldn't go back into old trauma when it was busy with brand-new trauma.

This is the story of what just happened to me. A program I believed in. A question I asked out loud that I wasn't supposed to ask. Getting thrown out — and then finding out a completely different version of why was being told to everyone. It's about being the person who says the true thing and instantly becomes the villain. And it's about the moment you realize: you fucked with the wrong bitch.

Car Insurance

Mon, 17 Aug 2026 04:00:00 -0400

I thought the worst thing that could happen had already happened. My three-year-old had been hit by a car. He almost died. And somehow… that wasn't the end of it.

Chapter 5 picks up in the hospital, on the night before my son was finally supposed to come home. The Spider-Man blanket — and the moment he realized I'd moved on. Why my son's father suddenly HAD to leave to go get "car insurance" while our child lay in a hospital bed. The grandfather who reappeared after years of being frozen out (I thought it was forgiveness — it wasn't). Papers handed to me in a hallway, and the lawyer who said "Gina, I'm so sorry… but they're real." The two allegations I'll never forget — and why the most believable lies always have a little truth buried inside them. Being "allowed" to accompany my own child.

Don't Forget to Brush

Mon, 24 Aug 2026 23:40:00 -0400

My three-year-old son was lying in a hospital bed recovering from being hit by a car — and that's when I found out his father had gone behind my back and taken emergency custody of him. Not because he wanted to raise him. Because I had moved on, and this was the punishment.

This is Chapter 6. The kitchen where my dad said "I'm going to start making phone calls." The welcome home party where nobody spoke to me for two days. The hospital bathroom, where a powerless 21-year-old found the only weapon she had access to — and used it. The phone call from my lawyer that changed everything. The five o'clock countdown. And a car caravan following me home, then standing on my lawn until my mother — the peacemaker, the one who never raises her voice — told them all to get off her property.

They thought they could write down whatever they wanted about a 21-year-old girl and take her child. They fucked with the wrong people.

He'll Get Over It

Mon, 31 Aug 2026 16:05:00 -0400

I'm human. My electric got shut off, my kids are mean, and I don't have a production team — but the story keeps going.

Chapter 7: my first time ever in a courtroom (the first of hundreds), and the debut of a woman you'll be hearing a lot more about — Polly Pocket. What it feels like to walk into a room where everyone has already decided who you are. The gossip lesson I'm actually grateful for: "and then I became Linda." The hearing he walked away from with no consequences, and the regret I still carry about being the bigger person. An apology on my parents' doorstep I still can't tell you was real. And a porch, a man crying, and the four dumbest words I've ever said.

My mother told me he'd torture me for the rest of my life. "He'll get over it," I said.

Boy, was I wrong.

The Box

Mon, 07 Sep 2026 12:40:00 -0400

It's Labor Day weekend. Fireworks going off outside. I'm alone in my house, and instead of being at the shore, I went down to the basement and dragged up a giant box with one word written on it in permanent marker: COURT. Some people have a cooler. I have litigation.

Inside: 300 entries between two court cases — custody and support — and sixteen years of stories behind the paperwork. I sat down to tell you what happened after my mother said "he's going to torture you for the rest of your life," and I had no idea where to start. So instead, I cried. Loud. And then I told you the truth about where I am.

This is Chapter 8. Why the first story was easy to tell and everything after it comes in glimpses — a Facebook page my friends made about him, a co-parenting session I got kicked out of at nine months pregnant. All the years I spent trying to make peace with a man who only offered two options: be with him, or be his enemy. The dinners where I tried to be a co-parent and he tried to reopen applications for girlfriend. Polly Pocket and her little rolly cart, and why my six lawyers were never the problem. What all of this did to my friends and my little sister. And two people harassing me right now, at forty, making me ask: how am I back in this position?

I don't have it figured out. But I've got a whole box of what happened next.

Leftovers

Wed, 16 Sep 2026 01:40:00 -0400

The last time I told my story, my mother said the neighbor was going to torture me for the rest of my life, and I said he'd get over it. I was wrong — there's a box in my basement with 294 court entries that says so. But before I open it, you need to meet the girl who was living her life while it filled up.

This is Chapter 9. How I got out of my parents' house (there were scissors involved — nobody lost an ear). The car my dad took, the apology I didn't mean, and what my mother taught me about enduring. A bartending shift, a third-floor apartment over the Delaware River with my best friend, a walk-in closet that changed my life, and a mattress on the floor I was perfectly happy with. A Mercedes. A boob job. Shore houses. Some of the best years I ever had.

And right at the start of them, a boyfriend we're calling Aspen — the Spider-Man blanket guy — who suddenly, out of nowhere, got very into skiing. Every weekend. Until one night, with him asleep on my floor, I picked up his phone and met Boston. And a text about leftovers told me everything.

This one's about the night I learned I didn't need a confession to believe my own eyes. And about a closet that smelled like cigarettes I couldn't smell — because when you live inside something long enough, your whole body adjusts. Your nose. Your brain. Your idea of normal.

You can't smell your own house. But once you step outside long enough to smell it, it's really hard to pretend it doesn't stink.

⚠️ Contains strong language and discussion of family conflict, infidelity, and toxic relationships.

Black Sheep

Mon, 21 Sep 2026 23:25:00 -0400

A few years ago I found an old camcorder in a box... there was my oldest, four years old, right after Christmas, in his little blue robe and slippers... I forgot his voice. I forgot what that little voice sounded like, and the second I heard it I missed it so much I couldn't breathe.

And I have a five-year-old downstairs right now.This is Chapter 10. The years in the apartment while the box in my basement quietly filled up. A woman calling my kid's daycare to check whether I'd sent him in with a hat and gloves. Text messages that came in like novels with no chapters. A soccer game, a wedding I never got to, my aunt on the phone saying "Gina, he took him" — and me chasing them up to a door on a Philly street that got locked in my face while my son was on the other side of it.

The day my kid told his principal the truth and I had to decide what to tell child services. The thing I said to his father afterward that I've regretted ever since.

And then, because the universe has a sense of humor: Aspen. Down the shore. Telling me he and Boston are "just roommates." So I found her, and I told her everything, and she believed me — and then she never called. They got married. Coolio married the other woman too. Two for two.

Because sometimes we know the truth. We just don't want to actually know it.

I went from being the perfect one to the black sheep. And I spent the next twenty years trying to get my title back.
