Another event for this fantastic LOCAL effort is coming up! 

Brandi from the leadership team is here to chat about how previous events have gone, how much the effort has grown, and December 6th's event. And of course how you can help.

She's great and I'm surprised I haven't run into Brandi sooner. She's a school admin and deeply involved in many community endeavors. 

How is time spoken in the UK.

It's Bethany's birthday tomorrow, and people are trying to cancel Baby Yoda.

How far down a infant's mouth does the nipple go during breast feeding?

A VERY old pic of fat Eric.

NOW it's round two of COVID.

The Five Second Rule.

Weird statue news. 

More traffic cams are coming. Bethany is displeased.

Levar Burton for Jeopardy host!

Oh dear, please don't be offended by my weak SEO attempt with today's episode title. 

I do have Veteran's Day (that's everyday!) thoughts to share with you about people in my life. Then we get to some 'extended' family.

MAJOR NERD ALERT. Not our usual superhero stylings but video games. Big scary words like WoW, Twitch, Playstation 5 and more with Will Harrison, a free lance writer with the Blade (this is only accidentally Blade week), and NOW, WoW podcaster!

DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS PODCAST.

As the holidays approach - with the annual added weight - if you've thought '2020 YOU WIN. GIVE ME ALL THE FOOD' please dive in and maybe take notes. 

From the tone of the emails I had a feeling this would be the kind of episode that COULD go for hours. 

The Blade's food connoisseur Mary Bilyeu is on. The Blade is EXCEPTIONAL journalism but Mary's food stories are not to be missed.

Mexican, Asian, Pizza, bagels, corned beef, unheard of food trucks, recipes for many or one! This is the most delicious podcast episode yet. 

Put your debit card away. Take the delivery apps off your phone. 

News just in, TPS is going back to all virtual next Monday.

Two main topics for today's episode. Michigan and the Lions are painful disappointments. Sorry. I couldn't help myself.

Lots of Jeopardy and Alex Trebek thoughts.

And lots more now that election is mostly over.

The Coke workers are still on strike.

Getting laid off. 

The pathetic, no questions press conference. 

London life on lockdown with Phillipe.

TSA's store is open for holiday shopping and it's First Friday.

Too soon for Christmas?

Bethany's baby struggles.

The Wonderbread factory is going to be renovated into living space.

Phillipe on Only Fans? We're trying!

My phone is now free. 

At long last Alex got her meds...from back in August. My Cymbalta. 

The no update, election update.

A French Bulldog won a political seat. Which of our dogs would make for good candidates.

Oregon (the state) is decriminalizing hard drugs. We LOVE this.

Gamestop is doing an employee contest where you can win...more work. 

Day 1 of Election Day aftermath and a shout out to the resurrection of speaking gigs with the Lucas County Suicide Prevention Coalition (bring us in!), and then we get to...

Brie Campbell from Ida's Catering. Brie's crew received money from the first round of $5000 grants from the city. Her menu looks delicious, and maybe they can be of help during Thanksgiving and the holidays. 

Go HERE for the grant info. Also, I *think* (so don't hold me to it) there's a special focus to get this in the hands of minority owned small Toledo businesses. 

Common is dating and in love with Tiffany Haddish? I had no idea.

Some Netflix things to keep an eye on.

More details about the Coca Cola strike, and the pains of health insurance.

Janet is here with us. We've been saying it for MONTHS. But the retrograde is finally winding down.

The counting of votes. Nothing controversial.

We've got another new intro song and Alex offers her most brilliant thought ever. 

Nikki McKibbin passes. She was from the first season of Idol, and finished third.

Sean Connery also passed. Neither of us were big fans, but we still have memories.

Trick or treating in other people's neighborhoods.

Locally, Coca Cola is striking. Seems like bad timing, and poor messaging so far.

Best of Toledo.

Floyd has to quarantine.

Daylight Savings Time. 

Alex has found an RV in the family. Show road trip!

You terrible Michigan fan. Fix your expectations.
