Damaged Goods with Andrea Abbate

Episode 11 we’re back with our good friend Logan Baert to unpack our wonderfully messed-up families! Andrea shares the bizarre story of her mom’s twin, who was kept in a jar in her closet. Oh, and her mom also worked with Ronald Reagan. Who knew someone in politics was so messed up. Alex recounts the story of the man his dad named Uncle Pervert. And Andrea wraps things up with a master class in GRATITUDE. Despite her arduous upbringing, she’s somehow trained her brain to find the silver lining in even the most unhinged circumstances.Logan's a great comedian and has reels going viral.

Also he looks like the lead singer of all the emo bands Alex listened to growing up so that's a bonus. Go follow Aiden Bloch:https://www.instagram.com/aidenbloch/?hl=enhttps://www.tiktok.com/@aiden.bloch_comedySUBMIT YOUR TRAUMA:https://linktr.ee/damagedgoodswithandreaabbateFOLLOW ANDREA ABBATE:https://www.instagram.com/andrearabbate/?hl=enhttps://www.tiktok.com/@andreaabbate544SEE ANDREA DO STANDUP:https://beacons.ai/andrearabbateFOLLOW ALEX DUFFANT:https://www.instagram.com/alexduffantcomedy/
