Ah, Washington DC, the seat of American power. However, if you think it’s all about seriousness, clandestine meetings, and Machiavellian plots all the time, sadly, you’re mistaken. Of course, there’s a lot of that going on in the background, but one thing that we tend to forget is that the people living and working (and, yes, even plotting) in Washington are just that—people. With very human dreams, ambitions, weaknesses, and silly conversations.
These conversations are out of this world and the massively popular ‘Overheard Washington DC’ Instagram page has the proof. It features bizarre and interesting snippets of gossip and conversations overheard by those living in DC. And you’d better grab some popcorn because they’re entertaining as heck!
As you’re scrolling down, upvote your favorite tidbits from ‘Overheard Washington DC.’ And if you happen to live and work there, we’d absolutely love to hear more about the hustle and bustle in the political heart of the United States.
Bored Panda reached out to the team behind ‘Overheard Washington DC’ and they were kind enough to go in-depth about their project. We started the account at the beginning of the pandemic in 2020 and have been the fastest-growing page in the DC area in just a short period of time with one of the highest engagements,” a representative of the Instagram page told me. “Our goal has also been to tell the world the story of DC and provide insight into our city through comedy. There is more to our beautiful city than just politics and politicians.”
