Flushing 411

So it turns out, traveling from coast to coast the day after one of the most powerful rainstorms in the history of NY is... complicated?! Well, all things considered, it was a relatively smooth journey over to Washington, and throughout the trip, I stopped in to share little pieces here and there regarding the journey. This is a compleeeetely experimental idea, so let me know what you think! Thanks so much for listening, and I hope you enjoy!

As I recorded this episode (and still as I type this description), there is truly a monsoon unfolding outside my window. Within the episode, you're sure to hear my tales of practically doing the backstroke to go pick up my laundry just an hour or two ago! Anyway, rain aside, you know how this goes by now! In this volume, I tackle my busy week, a wonderful change of plans with Matt, and the reason for my giddy lil smile. Thanks so much for tuning in, and I really hope you enjoy!

I must say, five episodes into this season of BIP, I can already say that this might be the best show in the Bachelor franchise! I'm absolutely loving all of the drama and storylines that have been unfolding, and this week was no different. We witnessed two jam-packed episodes, with all kinds of couple shifting, arrivals, departures, and beef beef BEEF! I have absolutely no clue what could be coming our way next week... Thanks so much for tuning in, and I hope you enjoy!

A series so knew, I didn't even refer to it by the correct name throughout the episode! I've had such a blast following the Mets through the prism of Flushing 411, and the feedback from you all has been so kind and encouraging! Needless to say, with baseball season winding down (and the Mets stinking up the place), I couldn't just let my fan side slip away from 23 Cents. Within this episode, I break down what this latest series will entail, and of course, how a kid from New York becomes a fan of the Washington Huskies! Thanks so much for tuning in, and Go Huskies!

This is some perfect timing, if I do say so myself! Fresh off another splendid visit to Owen's place up in Connecticut, and left reflecting on and recounting all of the wonderful memories we've shared, we're here with the latest in the Admiration Hour series. Few people have impacted my life as strongly and as positively as Owen has in our 13 years of friendship, and bud, here's to decades more! Thank you for listening, and I hope you enjoy!

The longest volume yet! To be fair, it'd been a full two weeks since our last Cuff, and I also was recording without a view of the timer (okay I admit, I might be just trying to defend my rambling here). In this episode, we covered a wholeeee lot of topics, hence why I couldn't pick just one for the title. Also, there were all kinds of questions this week for you the listeners, so pleaseee let me know your thoughts! Thanks so much as always, and I hope you enjoy!

We know, we know... two weeks isn't neaaaaarly enough time to properly gauge each of the 20 teams that make up this latest rendition of the Premier League. But, with the three of us back together again for our Mets make-up game, we simply couldn't help but dive headfirst into what we've been seeing from the biggest teams in the Prem so far this season. Can Chelsea keep up their torrid early pace? What's next for Arsenal after their latest stretch of ineptitude. All of that and more awaits inside! Thanks so much for supporting our series, and we all hope you enjoy!

Well, that was unexpected! I had absolutely, positively zero clue that this week (and going forward), we'd not only be getting our usual Monday episode of Bachelor in Paradise, but a Tuesday edition as well! I decided to merge two recaps (and four pages of notes) into one, and bring it all your way tonight. This week we saw some new faces, an uptick in hard feelings, and some "sexual tension"... thanks so much fo tuning in, and I hope you enjoy!

Did we expect anything less?! It was not easy whatsoever to pick and choose between the 14 incredible tracks that Lorde has blessed us with on Solar Power, but I felt that not only would it be great fun to rank them, but that getting my list done quickly would allow for an intriguing point to reflect on months down the road. Spoiler alert: I gushed about pretty much every single track! Thanks so much for the support (and thank you Lorde for the album)... enjoy everyone!

Has their ever been a ranking that I could hold so closely to my chest and cherish?! Well, that sums up exactly how I feel about just about everything to do with Trader Joe's, which is in my opinion, the most holy establishment I've ever stepped foot inside! This ranking episode is as much about me finding out what you all love as it sharing sharing my own favorites (seriously, you can never had too much of an inside scoop at that place). Thanks for tuning in, and I hope you enjoy!
