About this episode

This episode explores the daily life of Kaye Phipps through her recorded voice memos, focusing on themes of health insurance and karaoke.

This is the second episode of a periodic series I’m making called Life of Kaye. Making Rumble Strip is the closest I can get to understanding what it’s like to be someone else. But what would happen if I wasn’t standing around holding a mic and asking a lot of questions? For the last year I’ve been asking my friend Kaye Phipps to record voice memos on her phone and send them to me. I love listening to these recordings. It feels like looking at a whole life through a keyhole. Life of Kaye isa show about someone getting through the day…with all the funny and boring and sad and surprising things that make up day to day life. But edited a lot. In this episode: health insurance and karaoke
