The Caffeine Queens talk all things Thanksgiving this week and hope you are eating all the cranberry sauce your heart desires while listening to this episode. They talk grandpas getting too deep into the pre-meal prayer, southern vs. northern Thanksgiving things, being away from family, facetime Thanksgivings, friendsgivings, favorite Thanksgiving foods, which Thanksgiving foods they would be, and more. Cassidy also goes on a rant about having a car in the winter. They share opinions on the last two episodes of The Bachelorette and get into a heated discussion over the word “smokeshow.” Then, another riveting round of Will You Accept This Post.

Cassidy and Ayla talk about the joyous and monumental day that was Nov 7th, 2020 when Biden-Harris was elected, and how many times they cried happy tears each. Then they get into Bachelorette Parties - COVID style. Ayla shares her thoughts and experiences with attending a (small Bachelorette weekend) and Cassidy shares her horror at some of the pictures/videos she’s seen. They talk potential activities for a COVID Bachelorette and whether or not they would do it, possible itineraries for a virtual Bachelorette party, lingerie showers, and more. Then, of course, they divulge alll of the craziness that has been the past 2 episodes of The Bachelorette and introduce their new game “Will You Accept This Post?” Between Joe/Kamala getting elected and Tayshia becoming our new Bachelorette in one week, we are shocked we have not passed away from sheer happiness.
