Tori And Her Podcast

He's an OG, he's a fan favorite, and he's back! 

Welcome back to the pod CURTIS COLEMAN. Remember Tori's comedian friend who gave us the idea for a group Bumble account? The one who said he's above dating in Windsor? Ya, that one, from Episode 3.

He's back, but not to catch up or with any real updates. He was invited to this episode to COMPLAIN. Inspired by a phone call after a long day of being peppy, Tori wanted Curtis back so yo...

We’re back with another interview with someone near & dear to not only Tori, but Windsor-Essex as a whole. Say hi to KEVIN BLONDIN! 

Kevin and Tori met in college and became fast work-partners and friends. They were lucky enough to work together after school, even though the environment was less than ideal (they explain). Kevin has done all kinds of media-related work but has most recently dedicated his time to drag photography! ...

Let’s cut to it - this guest needs no introduction. 

If you’ve been on the internet in the past few years, you’ve likely heard the name ZACHERY DERENIOWSKI / MD MOTIVATOR - he’s the one with those viral, feel-good TikToks that always make us cry. Tori is honored to have Zach join her for a sit down chat about what kick started his mental health movement, some of his most memorable and personally impactful experiences & how he man...

Another week, another mega-interesting guest (if you couldn't tell from the episode title)!

Meet KIRSTYN, Tori's nail tech/therapist/close friend. They've known each other for years now and as expected, have gotten very close over their chats during nail appointments. Apart from that, Kirstyn is a successful OnlyFans artist and isn't afraid to talk about the biz, how she got into it, what she likes and doesn't & much more. Listen w...

Welcome back friends, family & the rest of ya's.

It's been a minute since we've had a guy on the podcast, and what a guy to have! Meet JAKE TOWN, certified Tall Dude and probably your favorite bartender. Jake's upbringing was anything but ordinary OR stationary. He & Tori talk about some significant and heavy topics including suicide prevention, men's mental health, and that one time he ran naked through The Bay. You're gonna love ...

And just like that... we're back with our first one-on-one interview of 2023!

We get to sort of welcome someone back, as she was one of the mini interviews from the last group episode. You got a glimpse, but we're certain that after this full-length interview you'll also fall in love with BIANCA STEFINA Certified Clinical Trauma specialist - Addiction. Bianca leads her practice with an incredible amount of compassion. Her kindness ...

WE’RE BACK - WE’RE BETTER - WE’VE GOT A NEW NAME!

Thank you for your support and patience. Tori explains the hiatus as well as the reasoning for this new (albeit temporary) name. And to kick off the comeback, she has something really special for this episode. 

Instead of the usual one-on-one interview, this episode features 6 mini-interviews with some wonderful women, most of who you haven’t met yet!

Meet MACKENZIE! She and Tori ...

We have our first returning guest for this week's episode, and for good reason! After VANESSA came on the podcast back in March (listen to Episode 5 HERE), her and Tori reconnected in a very special way.

This episode sounds more like a co-host discussion than it does an interview. Enjoy them discussing what being single together has looked like, the story of their drunk grandmother from Tennessee and what exactly their "types" are....

Tori didn’t anticipate that this podcast would bring her closer to people from Essex, but evidently, it has! 

This week, she’s joined by her longtime (but somewhat long lost) friend, DEEN OOZEER! If the last name rings a bell, that may be because both of his parents are beloved retired grade school teachers. His dad taught AND coached Tori and holds a very special place in her heart. Deen talks about the reality of having such in...

Hope you’re having a great September! Time has gone by in a very weird way for Tori, which she explains in the intro of this episode. As always, thanks for the love and support y’all.

We’re excited to present a lovely interview with a lovely woman, CHESLEA FREEZE! Yes, CHES-LEA. If you’re a local who likes yummy things, you’re likely familiar with her bakery Kings Bake Shop! It’s one of Tori’s favorites, and she is honored to hav...

Welcome back! Let's just get right into it!

This week's guest is none other than Tori's own sister, TAYLOR BENNETT! Try to follow along in the intro when Tori explains a bit of their family tree (or as Jay says, "it looks more like a family bush"). Taylor is certainly Tori's closest sibling and it's a joy to hear them reminisce on their childhood, discuss how they're alike but VERY different, and talk a little smack about their lov...

New & old listeners - welcome to Episode 15! We’re a little overwhelmed (in a *mostly* good way) at the response from last week’s episode. Tori discusses it - listen nicely. 

Tori & her guest get RIGHT into the heavy stuff this week. We are pleased to welcome SHAYLA BOOSE to the podcast! Shayla & Tori met in college and right away liked each other. Listening to Shayla talk relationships, living ALL OVER Windsor, traveling the wor...

First off, HUGE thanks for continuing to stream the podcast even during Tori’s little hiatus. The support coming in over the past few weeks has been invaluable to her.

Joining us this week is badass mother, feminist, and high school friend of Tori, CAMERON BASTIEN! Cam and Tori didn’t really have a relationship until recently actually, when they realized how similarly they feel about important issues AND share the same sentiments...

We've got another OG podcast supporters in the house! Tori is honored to interview her "closest non-friend", JOSH! He's every bit as charismatic as the front man of a band should be, and we guarantee you'll have a laugh. In between discussing being raised by a single mom and what it means to live a "meaningful life", they rip through subjects like early porn exposure, organized religion and how much Tori hates frogs. You're also go...

If you're also getting your ass kicked by seasonal allergies, let this episode be your pick-me-up!

Tori is joined by her oldest friend (friends for the longest, not the eldest) JENA FROESE! This is another episode full of laughs and inside jokes/stories that they do their best to explain, while rarely staying on topic. They touch on some heavier stuff, like losing a parent to cancer & the scary story of giving birth. But there is F...

ELEVEN EPISODES? That's wiiiiiild!

This episode is in TRUE Tori fashion - lots of laughs, some personal revelations, inappropriate conversation, etc. etc. We're excited to have the tall & talented AMARI JONES with us for this episode! Tori came to know him when he performed (and absolutely obliterated) a local amateur comedy contest. You'll hear his natural humor and charisma when he talks about being a certified mama's boy, lovi...

Happy June friends! We can't believe it's already June...time is strange...yada yada yada.

Tori is so excited to present this interview with the sweet, spunky and badass TAWNYA JACOBS! She discusses the terrifying experience of battling breast cancer at such a young age, in the middle of a pandemic, after just losing someone close to her from the very same thing. Somehow she did it with true grace, and we're so happy to have her he...

We're going to go ahead and give you a laugh warning for this episode... not just because you'll laugh, but because a lot of laughing goes on, and it's a bit loud. 

Tori is joined by her good friend CHELSEA VICTORIA! They met in school but bonded quick, thanks to some college club scandal and mutual love of obscure pop culture. You'll fall in love with her and understand why Chelsea is dubbed the ultimate hype girl (psssst...she ev...

Happy May y’all! 

It’s a pleasure to welcome DAVE NISBET to the podcast! He and Tori have been acquaintances for awhile now, but you’d have no idea based on this interview that this was their first time meeting in person. The conversation flows from his extremely interesting family, leaving a church (that he outright calls a cult), and why being “trailer trash” is quite a blessing. 

Dave also provides the music on this week’s epi...
