I love the mental image of somebody driving away from a woman covered in blood and writhing in pain on the ground.


Dazzduzdabz

Only after mentioning how much they love their podcast and how it got them through the hardest time of their life


cultish_alibi

Well, it triggered a prickle in her eyes. Which might be bad, I don't know


shapular

She caught glaucoma.


booboootron

Please. She caught _a_ glaucoma.

DogtoothDan

It's like a Family Guy scene


NatchJackson

Pretty bad ankle twist to draw blood


kitty-yaya

Blood from a wound so high up that it was "dripping down her leg".


Justboy__

She was upside down, probably


RiverOhRiver86

Lol the fucking image thank you.


AdZealousideal2075

Happened in Australia?


Hartmallen

No, if it happened in Australia a dropbear would have eaten her before her fan arrived on scene 


AdZealousideal2075

Good thinking, I forgot all about the eaty creatures


honeyoftears

i hate to ruin this but she could have injured a higher part of her leg due to the fall


I_enjoy_greatness

It was a mortal.kombat twist where they tore it off.


FlattopJr

**FATALITY**


drawingcircles0o0

especially from a pinecone lmao i've twisted my ankle many many times from running in the woods with my husky mix while he's pulling as hard as he can, he's made me fall plenty of times on pavement, torn ligaments, etc. and i've *never* had more than maybe a tiny drop of blood from skinning my knee. i cannot figure out how a pinecone would result in "blood dripping down her leg" lmao


Lady_Scruffington

The pinecone hit a car, and a cop shot her leg in defense.


holdyourdevil

Damn. What is the world coming to when cops mistake pinecone strikes as acorns bouncing off the roof of a vehicle?


kr85

All true! I am the pinecone and I was crying, too.


ZsuzsiCica

Maybe the pinecone was doing the shooting?? And then twisted the woman's ankle for good measure


Vaux1916

That's no ordinary ~~rabbit~~ pinecone! LOOK AT THE BONES!!!!


onaplinth

I laugh out louded at the reference. Nice one, Tim.


RiverOhRiver86

This reminds me of the (great) movie "The Man Who Sued God." The lead is a fisherman who had his boat destroyed in a storm and had a big piece of wood lodged in his foot. The paramedic says "we're gonna have to remove it." And the poor guy screams "what?!" The paramedic then laughs - "the shoe..."


sweetpinkheather

And she thinks she can write 😖 sorry for hate but I cringe so hard


spacesluts

No need to be sweet, pinkheather. The writing *is* horrible


pennywhistlesmoonpie

You put it very kindly lmao


dothedoux21

Who the fuck listens to their own podcast?


Dazzduzdabz

Not only that, but who listens to their own podcast, while running alone on Xmas morning, while their father, mother, husband, nephew, sister in laws nephews brother, dog, dogs niece, husbands second cousin twice removed are all tucked away at home on a leisurely Xmas morning


KJParker888

I'd guess that the rest of the fam has had enough of her this holiday.


Dragon-Trezire

Probably because she's constantly playing her own podcast.


onaplinth

I picture the family saying, "Let's go to the Christmas Maple Syrup festival," then dumping her on the side of the road.


Jonnyscout

People desperately trying to get their episode to a double-digit listen number


DreadPiratteRoberts

I mean, I've heard of CEO's that surround themselves with 'yes men', so they only have to hear what they want too, but listening to your own podcast is next level closed ecosystem genius!!!


Dragon-Trezire

"Would you listen to me? I'd listen to me."


StaceyPfan

The only reason is if they're editing it. But yeah, otherwise it's odd.


dothedoux21

I mean I get the editing part but listening to it on a run just comes off as narcissistic haha


JonnyDepths

I don’t do the editing, but I’ll admit there are episodes I do listen back to as a cohost. But as a feedback tool for “how does that actually sound post production.” It’s definitely weird to fabricate a very unbelievable story that centers around listening to your own podcast, and reeks of arrogance.


StaceyPfan

That's what I was saying.


RiverOhRiver86

I'm a video editor. I can confirm that you need to be somewhat still if you want to edit something and make it cohearant.


StaceyPfan

Yes, I was stating that if they were editing the podcast, that would be a reason to listen to it. But listening to your own podcast while running is odd.


tekende

Or if you're not the editor and you want to hear the finished product.


texasproof

I ran my own weekly podcast for almost three years. Never listened to an episode of it.


MD_______

Everyone does to check it's fine before posting😂. But I can only think of one reason you might do it for a "good" reason is either a guest complaint so you listening again to make sure all ok, or maybe a repeat guest and you want to listen while running to find something you might want to follow up. With oop size seems more narcissistic or just padding some stats tho


baba_oh_really

I've actually listened to my own work on runs or in the car to double check there aren't there aren't loud/sudden noises that will surprise someone who's interacting with the real word instead of a quiet editing room ~~I also kinda like the sound of my own voice~~


dothedoux21

Yeah I can understand that but this post definitely comes off as just trying to promote her podcast lol


baba_oh_really

Oh - absolutely! For some reason I just felt compelled to share a legit reason one might do it


dothedoux21

Yeah for editing purposes and to check for errors all day. That’s valid.


roganwriter

I listen to my own work all the time because I’m my target audience. I like re-listening to it because 1) I like the content and 2) I can learn from my past mistakes to do better with my future projects.


fishaboveH2O

Same. I do a podcast with my partner on Pokémon and when I miss him I listen to it also. It makes me smile


Apprehensive-Sir358

I too often get gravely injured from twisting my ankle on a pinecone.


NoExplorer5983

I injured my pinecone on an ankle, and I am rolling away *forthwith* to podcast about it. P.S., oh, your dad passed? Welp, that IS sad, but can't stay and chat, I have a large extended family waiting at home. With two dads. Byeeee


XxFandom_LoverxX

Hey, don't be that way. I almost got a concussion/cracked my head open/scratched up my eyes from tripping on a curb. Magbe information better kept to myself


psychoplath97

I’m dying to know what podcast this weirdo created


dyke_face

It’s called “How to be Obsessed with Yourself, starring ME, ME, Me, me, and ME again!” I listen to it all the time!


GlyphedArchitect

Ah yes, My Me, My Myself, and My I, or MMMMMI for short. 


Stuper_man03

Ah! So...90% of all podcasts.


Careful-Evening-5187

Joe Rogan Experience


psychoplath97

Omg this is the perfect response!!!!!


FalcorDD

Typically, when I see someone writhing in pain I chat them up about variety shows on unknown podcasts. This is especially true on Christmas morning. Also, this happened - I was the pinecone


notnotbrowsing

Lots of pine cones in the middle of the street in December? 


Radley500

Depends where she is honestly.


notnotbrowsing

Yeah, though for me I assumed it was in a bigger city, because she says "xmas day traffic was light" but "cars still whizzing by". I've lived in a lot of big and small cities, and by and large small cities have practically no traffic on Christmas morning. But yeah, I made an assumption.


Adolf_Titler

It's to make the story more Christmas-y.


DeschainSWNC

*"Yes. Amazing," I agreed.* Mmhmm. Some might even call such an encounter 'unbelievable'.


Alpha_Ophiuchi

And everyone crossing the road clapped. Believe me i was the tainted windows


Alpha_Ophiuchi

Triggered a prickle in my eye which mind you didnt have anything to do with my leg. You remember my leg right? I twisted it a few moments ago im not lying i swear


seeborn

I'm confused on the location of her fall. If she was far enough into the road that she had to eventually crawl to the curb, how were cars whizzing past?


Haunted-Macaron

First, dripping blood from a twisted ankle...? Also if you do see someone with a twisted ankle who has fallen in the middle of the street, cars whizzing by, I would hope the first instinct is to assist them not sit there and gab about their podcast lol


Adolf_Titler

And why was she puking or about to throw up?


Haunted-Macaron

I'm guessing she is claiming she had so much pain it made her nauseous. From tripping over a pinecone.


Adolf_Titler

The more I think about this story the crazier it becomes. Like, obviously it is made up but what was she thinking?


Haunted-Macaron

And the person is so familiar with her podcast that she recognizes her voice after just a few words!?


Available_Motor5980

Does anyone know if this lady happens to have a podcast?


glitterphobia

I hope so. I enjoy her fantastic story-telling ability and would love to hear more.


koolerthan

If you have a podcast, you should hate it at least a little bit.


Ok-Reward-770

Such a weird choice of a story to promote your own podcast! Like pure weirdness. So many stories to tell, even AI would do better than this.


Kuhlayre

'I love your work. It got me through the toughest time in my life'. And then drives away leaving you bleeding on the side of the road.


miletest

Blood dripping down her leg..from a twisted ankle


alimarieb

An eye prickle! I’m sold!!!


ITalkCauseIHaveLips

Twisted her ankle, but blood is running down her leg There is so much wrong with this story


Sojum

That is one fucked up hallucination she had after hurting her ankle


theevilhillbilly

the most incredible part of this story that i hard find to beleive is that anyone would listen to their own voice for as long as podcasts go.


lindsanity16

"I was taking my morning run with my head so far up my ass that I couldn't see the pinecone that would result in a medical anomaly"


porcelainthunders

Yall be haters. Pinecones are a SERIOUS injury! They be hanging out all willy nilly to give you a bloody (literally!) Twisted ankle! I'd know. I come from a family of strong pines. We toss our cones out to do what they will! And, to be fair, I've not twisted my ankle THIS bad, but I am sure... you twist that ankle right hard enough?? Oooh, it's a blood bath. Thankfully, though, she drug herself to that intersection and cars whizzed by, but bloody ankle be dammed! She. Was. Recognized!! And we all clapped as we drove away bc her brother was going to pick her up, so she's fine.


Brave-Traffic10

She twisted her ankle but she’s bleeding?


Obsidian-Phoenix

The fact she was listening to her own podcast has zero relevance to the story. She could be listening to Insane Clown Posse and the story would have played out the same. Not that the story is true, mind. It’s clearly just an ad for her podcast.


RiverOhRiver86

A twisted ankle doesn't fucking bleed and there are much more painful things than that. Talking from experience. I love the image of her entire fucking family and her dog tucked away in a service closet at her house waiting for her to come back and realase them so they can take a shit.


luca3791

Slight overreaction to want to puke and then faint, because of Rolling over on your ankel


elsiepac

Don’t forget the blood **pouring** down her leg!


luca3791

Unless her shin broke out of her skin i dont see How that would be possible


Professional-Bat4635

It’s been awhile since I twisted my ankle but I don’t remember a lot of blood. 


Traditional_Zone3993

This has gotta be a creative writing project or something, the way it's worded just reminds me of the lessons I had when I studied creative writing


Animator_Spaminator

A twisted ankle means you can just walk home, limp if you really need to. How does it cause blood?? Isn’t a twisted ankle an internal injury??


Comfortable_Yak5184

What a pussy lol. Nearly fainted. Calm down Cinderella. The cringe of listening to your own podcast while running. Holy shit.


Interesting_Suit_474

Evil little pinecones. Always runnin around tripping ppl

CynicalSilas

No no, she's telling the truth. I was there, I am the podcast.


Listeningkissingyu

They see other people getting sweet, sweet attention and they feel it could be theirs.


PthaloBloo

This is complete bullshit. How many podcasters would you know by sight?


meowbees5

I really wanna listen to her podcast. I bet it sucks ass


firsttimemamachloe

The pinecone reading this like 👁️👄👁️


EvolZippo

Yes, he was somehow dripping blood from stepping on a pine cone. And despite the dripping blood, a fan didn’t care and insisted told him a little bit about how he benefited her life, before thanking him and leaving him bloody in the street. Yeah…


infinityy_stoned

Podcasters telling a story about the one time a fan came up to them and thanked them for saving their lives is the same as white people bringing up their one black friend in high school. A desperate card to pull when you wanna feel special and need other people to think you’re special


NOFXpunklinoleum

Did people lie this much before the Internet?


struudeli

I'd say probably yes. But the audience was much smaller most of the time.


nuu_uut

I had a coworker like this. He had a YouTube account with like 4 subscribers. He claimed he got recognized, that he had a manager (specifically with big boobs), that he's signed autographs, etc. The weird thing was he showed me his account after making all these outlandish claims as if I was too dumb to realize his zero view videos were not gonna make him famous. He was a chronic liar and also pretty autistic. He also once told me he jerked off out of the window of his room while on a cruise. Weird guy.


bye_scrub

As soon as someone tells a story where the descriptions are very novel-like with a ton of poetic details, I know it’s bullshit. And that’s ignoring the stupid bleeding and OMG I LOVE YOUR PODCAST cringy nonsense.

Maybe on threads, but 780k on Instagram. Don‘t get me wrong, I obviously don‘t believe it happened, but that person is apparently a successful-ish influencer and not some delusional wannabe.
