Rich Easton explores life's absurdities through irreverent rants and personal tales in this month's episode of Just Tales. Listeners are treated to sharp observations on modern phenomena ranging from holiday commercialization to the curious trend of permanent jewelry and the experience of becoming "invisible" as we age.

• Traditional Thanksgiving turkey has evolved dramatically from a simple holiday meal to bizarre variants including turkey pizza, burritos, and even ice cream
• The awkward dilemma of what to call your in-laws – from using their first names to the uncomfortable request to call them "Mom" and "Dad" 
• World Cup commentary highlighting the contrast between incredible athletic skill and dramatic flopping
• The questionable trend of permanent jewelry that cannot be removed without special tools
• How aging bestows the unexpected "superpower" of invisibility, especially between generations
• Two parables related to golf: loving the journey rather than focusing on the destination, and treating victory and defeat as equal imposters

Talk to you next month with more tales from beautiful Charleston, South Carolina.
