Episode 13

Around the time of her mother’s death and the end of the banker story, high school Bobby showed up at Michele’s house looking pretty adorable. He told her that his mother on her deathbed said he should marry Michele. Where was that going to lead? In the end, when Bobby married his secretary, their convoluted love affair hit yet another road bump. Thank heaven that not long after that Michele signed up to attend a croquet tournament at the swank resort Meadowood in California’s Wine Country. That turned out to be a homerun decision as she met a delicious German aristocrat named Carl and had one of her very favorite LoveCapades! Romantic, sexy, elegant, and glamorous all at once. Every woman should have an affair of the heart like this one. Oh la la! To finish up the episode Michele described her father in much more detail and explained how he’d been a profound influence on her life. Intriguing stuff.

About the Podcast

LoveCapades
The LoveCapades podcast is derived from the memoir of the same name written by Michele Musy. It’s the story of Michele’s life seen through the prism of her experiences of love in all its many forms. From the hilarious to the harrowing, it’s a kaleidoscope of colorful episodes told as a celebration of a life full of adventure and joie de vivre. As you will learn, Michele makes choices that are unexpected, leading to a string of wild outcomes as she travels the globe. She even ventures into the mystical realms in a continuing search to find her true identity.

The podcast consists of 21 episodes in which Michele reads directly from the memoir. She is joined by her co-host, Sally Kaplan, who does a masterful job introducing each segment, and then leading a Q & A session after each reading. Invariably, Sally gets Michele to reveal even more about her life experiences as she wrestles with her demons…and ultimately discovers how to love herself.

Born and raised within a mile of Stanford University, I still live close enough to walk to the campus. Pretty good karma I’d say. I’ve had many jobs through the years including high school English teacher, but my main profession has been Realtor…selling a zillion houses throughout the years in the heart of Silicon Valley. I’ve been an ardent traveler, gardener, bridge player, storyteller and basic lover of life. Fun is my middle name. During all of these endeavors I’ve had a passion for writing and a love of words—I see words as playthings, or as I like to call them, the Legos of communication. My latest writing undertaking is my romantic memoir which I call LoveCapades. Yes, a word I made up. And now I am thrilled to be the creator of the LoveCapades podcast. This has been a labor of love full of fun and joy. I hope you all catch some of that spirit as you listen!

For over twenty years I have been writing and producing for film and television and, with my husband, have run our documentary film company called Backcountry Pictures. I also love to support writers of all levels and backgrounds, teach creative writing classes, and edit books for small presses. Once in a while I will edit a book for a special individual. Such was the case when Michele found me through the writers’ network and asked me to edit her memoir LoveCapades. We had a lot of fun working together, and I was so captivated by Michele’s stories that when she decided to create a podcast from the book, she invited me to be her co-host. The whole experience has been a delight. I’m so excited to share the humor, warmth, adventure, lustiness, tenderness, and self-reflection of LoveCapades to a wide listening audience.
