  • Make way for the Queen of Melrose! Cosmo has blessed us with a visit to get Very Delta! She spills the tea on what brought her to Los Angeles and how she lost everything, but gained it all back! This is a story of perseverance, heart and a lot of laughs. The two chat about trade in the 80’s, trade today and transactional affections. Plus, Delta goes off about parents with babies on planes. You won’t find her on the Booger Down Jamboree.

    This is not a specific comment about this episode but, rather about the show and Delta Work as a whole. I am currently 32 years old native Angeleno as well. and after watching and listening to the Pod for some time, I just really appreciate how mature, earnest, and comfortable Delta is with herself. This has been so helpful to me. Also, Delta's work has inspired me to develop my voice. At the beginning of every episode, Delta's "Rant" is such a great masterclass on letting loose and being tongue-in-cheek without taking yourself too seriously. I love a good "go off" even for small things. Such a LA thing if you ask me

Cosmo encompasses realness through and through! And I gotta admit it, just moved to Florida after 6 years living in New York and hearing that accent and getting that singular vibe that only New Yorkers carry and stamp in everything they do made me feel right back at home for the duration of the interview at least!

    Love the discussion about scent. So many folks don’t know certain folks just struggle with scent. So maybe have that discussion about “it’s hard-do many things trigger my body. I love certain scents (mention hers) “I love it but I end up getting so sick w vomiting and diarrhea. I’m still looking for an answer!” And share that doctors have said it’s best to stay away from fragrances for now. Now, if she has any empathy-she will either stop or dial it way down! Worst case: you’ll have to talk to the boss/supervisor and share your illness.
