Sally Tamarkin is nursing an achey breaky back this week so we’re running a Patreon-only episode from last holiday season with Nora! We talk about our first Vegas trip, the Jessica Simpson holiday song that Sirius XM is literally OBSESSED WITH playing 24/7 (true last year and true this year!), and the startling discovery Caroline made when rewatching the Newlyweds Nick and Jessica Christmas episode for the 9 millionth time.

Check out The Shop Hub, a spreadsheet designed by us for you to help make your holiday shopping an easier, more enjoyable experience. On The Shop Hub you’ll find all the brands you love to shop and their corresponding sales, codes and deals.

Two products I bought in the last 60 days that have been worth it: an air fryer and a leaf blower. Sally has neither but maybe by the end of the show has both? And why I think an air fryer has much more staying power than the Instant Pot.

Plus Hannah, who took home the vintage dresser I couldn’t stop thinking about, joins us to give an update on how it’s doing in her home. Then she stuns us with a baby powder lifehack that leaves Sally and I gasping.

Which Gee Thanks! guest co-host penned the controversial argument, “Against Trick-or-Treating” in the 90s? If you guessed Sally Tamarkin, you’re right! We dive deep into Halloween: the costumes we bought, the candy we counted, and what made a neighborhood trick-or-treatable (PS. our opinions were not always correct). Plus, what we think of Halloween as adults and what Caroline thinks Sally should do with the essay.

Also, did your high school have a Halloween parade? Caroline’s did. Do you listen to this episode and think, wow these people have lost the joy?

Plus, spooky mingo decor and the booming 12 foot skeleton trend taking over Los Angeles and maybe your neck of the woods, too?

A week ago I walked into a thrift store and found truly the vintage dollhouse dresser of unrealized dreams for sale for $125 and I balked and didn’t buy it (but listener and new friend Hannah did). Now I can’t stop thinking about it and I had to call Sally in to help me figure out why I, a professional money spender, panicked and didn’t spend the money on this dresser. We’re calling it non-buyer’s remorse.

PS – Do you have this 70s dresser? Can I buy it from you?

Sally and I both shelled out the big bucks for the $700 (*SUCKS IN BREATH*) Litter Robot, and now we’re giving you our full review. If these cats could talk.

Plus, a familial connection to the Hammacher Report!

I am nervous to share with you that we’re talking about car things again. 

I think this makes three episodes where car things have come up, but Sally is going on a Road Trip (capitalization for formality) in October and we thought it was appropriate to bring up some car things. But I know Gee Thanks-heads who are loyal listeners will be like “REALLY, CAR GARBAGES AGAIN, CAROLINE?” but look, we don’t go through life CHOOSING our passions, okay? We are born this way. Or at least, I am.

But I do bring up some new ideas like a food eating sweatshirt. The Real John Max will be helping me patent. Don’t even try!

If you haven’t guessed yet, Sally Tamarkin is here for the long haul (or until she gets sick of doing this; really who knows!). This episode will let Sally Heads get even more hardcore about their Sally Head-ness and for soon-to-be Sally Heads have their inaugural episode!

We play two truths and a lie and I make a claim that nothing bad happens at Disneyland, death-wise. Do not send me any claims refuting this. I will not read them. It's the only time I go on rollercoasters, I don't wanna know anything bad!
