10K Dollar Day

INTRO: (00:00) We were on SiriusXM last week, which if you follow us ANYWHERE you know this because we were so excited and posted so much on social media. Just check our Facebook for proof. Also, check out our friend Alan Seales' podcast - The Theatre Podcast.

OBSESSIONS: (05:00) Tis the season for holidays...and winter colds, meaning Lulu is obsessed with Puffs with Vicks. Alison is obsessed with Febreeze One in the new Bamboo scent.

WISHLIST: (07:41) Lulu is freaking out about the Embr Wave, a personal temperature regulator. Alison wants a Peloton bike.

ALISON’S 10K DAY - GETTYSBURG, PA: (11:37) Alison starts her day by renting Brasenhill mansion, and a BMW 2 Series from Turo. She came for the renactments, but they only do them in July. So Alison is going to put on her own with the help of a licensed Gettysburg guide. She recruits actors and heads to Gettysburg National Military Park equipped with Union Soldier Costumes, Confederate Soldier costumes, and prop weaponry. After the renactment, lunch for herself and her cast is on theme - biscuits and corn whiskey from Mason DIxon Distillery. Now to inject some luxe  into this day - a private hot air balloon ride  and a private chef.

LULU’S 10K DAY - Sant Llorenç des Cardassar: (23:22) This island off the southeast coast of Spain is the location of the villa featured on the British reality show Love Island. Alison is obsessed with the show, which you know if you listened, watched, or read Episode 41. Going here would be "like me taking a vacation to heaven!" sighs Alison. Lulu buys Nest outdoor security cameras, night vision cameras, and a roving camera man, all so that Alison and Ashley can watch her there. We would have stowed away on a boat, just sayin'. She snacks on Spanish tapas prepared by her personal chef, then takes a guided tour of Cuevas del Drach. A luxury yacht for half a day, and a blowout party with a Mallorca Beats DJ all sound great, but without best friends or boys, is she really taking a Love Island vacation? I think we are still miffed she left us at home.

Alison is not happy when she finds out where Lulu is going...

Another polished episode...

INTRO: (00:00) Hi everyone! We are calling this episode Drunk on Gregg's Couch. It's pretty clear why. You can also go watch this episode's Youtube Companion video. It is fan-freakin'-tastic.

OBSESSIONS: (02:29) Alison is excited about her obsession - oat milk. It is so much better in your coffee than almond milk. Lulu is obsessed with the Roosevelt Island tram.

WISHLIST: (06:32) After discovering oat milk, Alison is wishing for a frother to make her at-home coffee taste next-level. "Frother, I don't even like her!" is just one of three witty quips Lulu has on the tip-of her tongue. Lulu is wishing for recreations of her favorite clothes. This wish will be coming true thanks to our producer!

LULU’S 10K DAY - TORONTO, CANADA: (14:16) Lulu stays in the executive suite at The Hazelton Hotel. Food and drink are the themes of this day with stops at Eggspectation, Holy Chuck Burger, and Harry-Potter themed bar The Lockhart. Someone was hungry while doing their research. Lulu does the CN Tower Edgewalk then squeezes in a little shopping for artisanal soaps at The Good Bar. A tour of Ontario Spring Water Sake Company is followed by a trip to the Gardiner Museum to buy a sake serve set . Lulu pops in to Cineforum, an illegal movie house run out of someone's house. She's still hungry so on to Lake Inez, and then to Bar Chef. She heads back to the hotel to enjoy her new soaps in the soaking tub, while she drinks a bottle of Laphroaig QA Cask scotch.

ALISON’S 10K DAY - COPENHAGEN, DENMARK: (38:59) Alison is staying at the Nimb Hotel. She starts her day with a cruise that comes with breakfast and mimosas and includes a stop to see The Little Mermaid Statue. Then she takes a private Hamlet Castle tour. Lunch at Royal Smushi Cafe, then a visit to the Throne of Denmark at Rosenberg Castle which turns into a photoshoot thanks to photographer Nataly Dauer and a custom-made viking dress. The tasting menu at Geranium comes with a wine pairing much to Alison's excitement.  A final stop at Balthazar, Denmark's first champagne bar.

Another polished episode...

INTRO: (00:00) Happy Halloween! To celebrate we decided to a themed episode, where both of the places we visit have a spooky or sinister past. We're using scary voices, and holding flashlights under our chins. Reminder to tune into John Fugelsang's Tell Me Everything on SiriusXM on November 6th.

OBSESSIONS: (04:02) Alison is obsessed with her new luggage! Apparently we are already looking forward to Christmas, because Lulu is obsessed with Hallmark Christmas movies.

WISHLIST: (07:25) Alison is wishing for a Roomba. Two pets and two daughters means a lot of sweeping and vacuuming, and Alison loves to have someone (or something) do things for her. Lulu is wishing for the new iPad pro that was released yesterday!

She has the Ghostbusters theme song on repeat while she shops for some equipment, including a replica of the proton pack they have in Ghostbusters. Lulu pays someone to do the Fright Furnace Tour at Sloss for her. She heads to Paramount Arcade to meet her Furnace Tour friend who recounts their experience. Lulu gifts everyone in the bar a ticket to Little Shop of Horrors at Red Mountain Theater. Lastly, she buys a California King Wave mattress by Casper (the company, not the friendly ghost).

ALISON’S 10K DAY - SALEM, MASSACHUSETS: (27:10) Alison heads to what is still known as "Witch City, USA", wearing this gothic black maxi dress. She stays at The Salem Inn in room W 17, known as the haunted room. A psychic reading and a shopping spree at Hex Old Witch Witchery. She buys out a cruise around the Salem Sound, and invites Sinister Salem Stories along. Next Alison takes the Spellbound Tour of Joshua Ward House, known as one of the most haunted houses in America. She fills up on baked oysters and champagne before a private seance with Omen Salem. It's Halloween night, so along with candy from Ye Old Pepper Candy Company she passes out 10K Dollar Day toothbrushes.

Lulu's worried Alison will be cursed after her 10K Day. Listen and you decide!

INTRO: (00:00) Alison is excited about it being Episode 44, because she's obsessed with numbers and numerology. Lulu has been binge watching The Haunting of Hill House, which is so unlike her scaredy-cat self. TWO exciting announcements - we launched our brand new blog AND we will be guests on Tell Me Everything, John Fugelsang's show on SiriusXM on November 6th.

OBSESSIONS: (08:00) Alison is obsessed with the Luna Play Plus. It's an amazing portable silicone facial cleansing brush. Lulu's obsession is Southwest Airlines.

WISHLIST: (12:57) Alison wishes that candles weren't so expensive. Lulu's wishlist item is for the Zoom H6 pro.

LULU’S 10K DAY - CHARLESTON, SC: (16:31)
Lulu stays at The Spectator, and she rents a Chevy C7 Z06 for the day from Palmetto Exotic. Lulu heads to The Grocery for breakfast, then she goes for a walk through Mrs. Whaley’s Garden. Local Shopping at Anglin Smith Fine Art Gallery, High Wire botanical gin and Carolina Sea Salt. Next Lulu goes to The Macintosh, where she tries bone marrow bread pudding. She's ~$2500 short so she buys everyone in the 10k Dollar Baes group some sea salt. That brings her total to $9,999.99 exactly.

ALISON’S 10K DAY - KINGSTON, JAMAICA: (28:25) Alison stays in a villa she found on Airbnb. She rents a Mitsubishi Pajero through booking.com. Breakfast at The Terrace at Terra Nova. before a tour of the Bob Marley Museum, as well one of Walkerswood seasonings factory. A ganja tour is followed by dinner at Strawberry Hill Hotel. Reggae and dancing at Kingston Dub Club. She ALSO has ~$2500 left. So she buys each of the 10k Baes some seasonings. That brings her total to $9,999.99 exactly. Not sure if that number is correct, but for the love of numerology and for continuity's sake, we'll allow it.

Free salt, bizarre Halloween costumes and more!

We have NEVER had a more "official" googler! This is legit.

INTRO: (00:00) We have a guest googler, who actually works at Google. Ooooohh, meta. It's Alan Seales! We are happy to have him on our podcast, as he is also in the podcasting world. He helps produce Brave New Weed and is also starting the soon to be launched The Theatre Podcast.

OBSESSIONS: (6:52) Lulu is obsessed with the ability to see her text messages across all of her devices. Alan updates his long-time obsession with podcasts, to this podcast. He's listening back through them, which you can do as well by going to the listen page of our website. Alison is obsessed with eyelash extensions.

WISHLIST: (14:38) Lulu wishes for an apartment that is decorated in her style, not the style of whoever she happens to be subletting from. Alan is wishing for some home repairs, those can take awhile. Alison's wishlist is simple this week, she just wants some rainboots.

ALAN’S 10K DAY - TONGA: (19:43) This is one of the few places in the world where you can get into the water and swim with the humpback whales. Alan brings some sporting equipment as well as this AKASO Underwater Waterproof Camera/Camcorder. He stays at the Mandala Island Resort because of its great amenities, including meal plans. He bought the Mavic 2 Pro drone and heads on a tour with Whale Swim & Tours LIMITED. He's certified thanks to Adventure Scuba NY. A foldable star chart helps make use of the hotel's free telescope. The solution to only having spent three grand at this point is buying a new MacBook Pro and Final Cut Pro X so he can make a sweet movie of his trip. The girls give him a round of applause.

ALISON’S 10K DAY - KLEVAN, UKRAINE: (39:58) Again, with the pronunciations! Alison flies her husband out to meet her. They stay in a high-rise apartment they found on Airbnb. A quick breakfast at Smorrebrod before heading to The Tunnel of Love. They look for another luxury activity in Klevan but all that comes up on google is ESCORTS. So instead of that, they head to Beef to take masterclasses on steak and cocktails, and to eat at the chef's table. Lastly is B-Hush Bar where they splurge on a 3k bottle of Hennessy Paradis Imperial.
