Hi, we’re Brittney & Bridget, the founders of NFNO.
We’re also the co-hosts of the Neither Funny Nor Original podcast, wives (to each other) and chronically exhausted by shitty people doing shitty things. Our mission is to find the good and inspiring in this world by following the breadcrumbs of our personal interests to get us there. Believe it or not, there’s plenty of good people out there, so while we would love to be a one stop shop for you, we also want to be a gateway that introduces you to other inspiring creatives because life’s too short and the world’s too big to keep you all to ourselves.
Our mission is to cultivate better living through inspiring stories and meaningful conversations.
Our Origin Story
Neither Funny Nor Original (NFNO) first began as a podcast in 2018. When we launched the podcast, we were eager to build a community of other like minded individuals through our shared coming out experiences and personal stories of childhood and religious trauma. Our intention was to create a safe space for those needing encouragement and to share how we manage building a healthy marriage while navigating unhealthy relationships with family and friends. While the heart of Neither Funny Nor Original remains the same and much of our familial circumstances remain unchanged, our focus on this platform has evolved because we have evolved. Rather than cycling through our own personal stories and silver linings, we are compelled to find it in others through meaningful conversations and creative storytelling.
This platform (passion project) is a labor of love born out of the love we have for each other, so thank you for showing up and showing support. We invite you to pull up a seat and stay a while. Take a look at our journal of random reflections, cycle through a listening sesh of our latest podcast episodes, or peruse the virtual aisles of our online shop. We hope you find something to connect with and hey, maybe even want to be our friend? No pressure.
With love,
B & B

Congratulations. You now know which B you're talking to. Probably.
