Outside The Footnotes

Outside the Footnotes is where a good story turns into a much bigger conversation.

Hosted by Wendy and Klynn, each episode starts with something that grabs our attention — a strange piece of history, a true story, a cultural obsession, a bizarre event, or a rabbit hole we couldn't stop digging into.

We tell each other the story, react to it in real time, get distracted, ask questions, laugh, disagree, and inevitably end up somewhere we didn't expect.

Because the story is only the beginning.

The real conversation lives in the footnotes — the overlooked questions, human behavior, contradictions, and uncomfortable truths hiding underneath what happened.

No lectures. No pretending we have all the answers. Just two people who are endlessly curious about why people do the things they do.

Stories worth getting lost in. Questions worth getting stuck on.

Because sometimes what's missing from the conversation is where it gets interesting.

I’m eclectic by nature and don’t feel like I fit neatly into one category. I’m a full-time document control specialist who works from home, but my interests range from yoga, crystals, sound healing, Reiki and Tai Chi to science, poetry, journaling, social media and etymology. I’ve practiced yoga for over 20 years, taught for about five, and been a Reiki Master Teacher for 11 years.

I consider myself a quiet rebel. Raised in Catholic schools from kindergarten through high school, I’ve also studied Protestantism, Buddhism and Hinduism. I question everything because I want to understand the why and find the common ground beneath different beliefs.

I don’t always find it easy to share my views when I fear being seen as weird or rejected. Losing my mom in 2023 reshaped my life and pushed me outside my comfort zone. As co-host of Outside the Footnotes, I’m doing exactly that—sharing stories, asking questions, and exploring ideas that make me stop and think.
