Swamp Grits
Swamp Grits is a future award-winning podcast with little to boast outside its name. What began as a drunken suggestion to turn useless observations into regimented half-hourish musings, Sye and Shpak would argue they've done exactly that. The two southern-esque, desperately radical lesbians created these woefully indulgent conversations with one thing in mind--Shpak: "Gay." Sye: "Questioning Ryan Murphy."
