We're taking the week off to celebrate Thanksgiving, but that doesn't mean you can't still listen to this repeat episode the gals recorded last Thanksgiving about their favorite Thanksgiving foods.  We hope you had a great holiday, and we'll see you next week!

It's that time again.  Lori & Jane spend some time answering more random questions, including "What fictional character would you bring to life?" and "What would the title of your autobiography be?"

Everyone has at least one movie that they can't stand, but yet everyone else adores.  This week, Jane's sister Jen joins the show to discuss movies we hate that everyone else loves. We guarantee to offend most listeners with our #1 choice.

Lori sits out this episode (since she's a Luddite), but Jane is joined by the lovely Mary Carver from The Couch with Mary Carver. 

In this episode, Jane and Mary talk about their most-used phone apps that they believe everyone should be using if they aren't already!

Who doesn't love George Clooney movies?  This week Lori & Jane go through some of their favorites by one of the most dapper Hollywood leading men of our generation.

Jane and Lori wax nostalgic about their favorite children's TV shows when they were kids.  Did you also get up for the children's version of "MUST SEE TV" on Saturday mornings?

And the current day cartoon that Jane could not remember is called "Gravity Falls." 

This week Lori & Jane spend some time discussing some animals that aren't typically thought of as possible pets that they would LOVE to have as pets.  Lori spends most of the episode focused on her first choice, really.  She's OBSESSED. 

Note: Jane clearly doesn't know what she did with the sound setup.  She changed the settings and it's STILL bad again this week.  She promises she'll fix it for next week...we'll see.  Please forgive us again for the sound.  She thought she fixed it, but she clearly didn't.  She sounds like a mouthbreather on this episode, which I guess is her punishment for being such a bad sound editor all of a sudden.

ANYWAY, this week Lori is taking a break so Jane is joined by her daughter Olivia to discuss the worst movies they've ever seen.  Olivia has a controversial choice but can't back it up, but Jane loves her nonetheless and let her keep her pick.  Tune in to find out what it was!

NOTE:  We know the audio on this episode is atrocious.  Jane thought she was getting fancy with a few changes she made to our recording settings and only succeeded in making us sound like rookies again.  Don't worry - she fixed the settings after we recorded this episode.  We promise the next one will be better.

This week Lori & Jane delve into a discussion of their favorite TV networks as well as some of the shows they love on those networks.
