Episode Synopsis

She is fascinated by everything having to do with language and linguistics. She can explain arcane points of grammar with enthusiasm and joy, possibly a consequence of her Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Robyn and her husband Michael produced Drew, who is the apple of his Nana’s eye.Lauren began playing the guitar at age 10. She eventually developed her musical ability to include songwriting. Other interests include a large variety of fabric and fiber hobbies, growing and using herbs, stained glass, beadwork, and jewelry making.Lauren lives in a log cabin near Fairbanks, Alaska, along with Shadow, a grumpy poodle, Shenanigans, a Lab mix, and Sir-the-Cat, who runs the household.Connect with LaurenFrench CourtCody: The Extraordinary Life of an Ordinary Dog Connect with the host, [email protected]
