Dec 5, 2022 - But I digress...
Jenn and I are both in really good moods for this new episode, and we’re talking about Botox, pet peeves, admitting when you’re the villain of your own story, ghosts, the shadow self, good and terrible Christmas music, Fleishman Is in Trouble, and a lot more! Do tune in on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Audible, or wherever you get your podcasts.

(Flatly) “Monogamy is for the poors.” Dies laughing; you guys were on fire that day.
YES – this needs to be a t-shirt.
Kim, traditional Christmas music also leaves me cold. (No pun intended.) But if you dig around there are some lesser-played songs that bring a different vibe.
My suggestions: “Fairytale of New York” by The Pogues, Joan Jett’s take on “Little Drummer Boy,” “Christmas Wrappings” by The Waitresses, “Just Another Christmas Song” by Stephen Colbert, and Weezer’s version of “We Wish You a Merry Christmas.” And of course “Christmas in Hollis” by Run DMC.
Good podcast! I lived in a “haunted” house in Wilmington, NC. Too long a story to go into here, but it was definitely interesting. I’ve also seen a UFO and was thankfully not alone when I had that experience so I know it wasn’t just me. As to being kind with disdain…there is this woman who always says things to me in the form of a question such as…”What an interesting way to wear your hair, but you are always doing something different aren’t you?!” uhhhh….yes?
CW, I, too, grew up in an “interesting ” house with a mother who claims Strega ancestry. Perhaps next year, ’round Halloween, Kim could open the blog up for ghost stories. Might be fun!
