Recording from the old home base, the hosts warn listeners about potential canine interruptions from Abraham. (Because what's a podcast without some authentic background noise?) They share updates about their busy weeks, from campus walks to Friday night adventures in Lockport trying the massive Stinger burger—a Buffalo specialty combining steak, chicken fingers, and blue cheese. At Gonzo's, drinks still cost just $3.50, making them wonder why anyone would ever leave such an affordable area.

The conversation takes a more personal turn when discussing health scares, including an unexpected UTI that struck during a work orientation. They also dive into their weekend activities: wrapping Christmas presents with cocktails, attending a 50th birthday party with rugby players and an open bar, and binge-watching the series Wayward. What did they think about the show's depiction of institutional control versus cult dynamics?
