Best Gabe Ever

Our election anxiety was correct. Then, Mark Ruffalo dreamed his own cancer diagnosis, we talk about taking sneaky photos of celebs at an event, and Gabe drops extensive Colin Jost dating lore. Next, Allison shares a post about a woman who overheard her fiance telling his boys he doesn't wanna get married and decided to let him off the hook. Gabe has an autistic question about why men complain about their wives. Then, cinnamon styrofoam and vanilla pods.

Allison’s gone and it’s just the DEI hires from the South today! After a bunch of tangents, we talk r/tipping, where flavors come from and which surprising ones Melisa hates, and a man whose wife is accusing him of fathering her friend’s baby. Then, an OP ends up telling lots of tall tales, and another watches 72 Disney movies. Gabe and Melisa recount their problematic 90s show choir experiences. Could Gabe beat RuPaul in a Drag Race trivia contest?

We debate the heat of the Earth’s core before reading an r/AITH about a husband cheating with and impregnating the couple’s surrogate. Should the wife give up her parental rights? Then, a man complains that the woman he left his wife for is not a good girlfriend. Then we explore r/wellthatsucks and r/hypotheticalsituations for gas station antics, getting millions to go back to school Billy Madison style, and choosing to get ears and a tail, master pizza chef skills or 20 dollars. (It makes sense in context, we promise.) Finally, what would you do if you found your maid of honor shit talking you on Facebook right before the wedding?
