Matt & Ramona Off Air

Ramona obeys the speed limit. She is careful. She is cautious. These are all attributes. They fly in the face of Matt's wanton (and usually rushed and perhaps distracted) driving style.

But today she peels back another layer and reveals what kind of passenger she is.

Ramona fulfills a lifelong dream of traveling to France and while she couldn't take her mom, Wheezy, who passed away two years ago, she could take her in spirit.

Only Ramona took it in one step further. 

She literally took Wheezy. As in, her ashes. On the place. Which required some foresight. And lying.

Carolina Panther center, Bradley Bozeman, and his wife Nikki talked with Matt and JD about the Monday night game, their competive nature and how much Bradley ate in one sitting!

I assure you, you're not the only one with questions when you hear that Matt's fashion inspiration is a bear that doesn't wear pants. But he makes it make sense. Wait, that's a lie. It doesn't make sense.

It's borne from a conversation about the show's collective lack of comfort with their body image (and how harshly most of the show judges others.) 

You can also hear how 3rd grade JD was an over eager beaver and I write that because he doesn't believe he was a teacher's pet. More of a teacher's enthusiast. There's probably no difference.

Ramona attempts to be a better, less judgy person when it comes to other people's coughing. Currently feeling a little under the weather, she has become hyper-aware of her own symptoms and perhaps a little self-consicious?

Then Matt and Ramona get into the etiquette of tipping in some specific group outings.

Matt & Ramona, in today's podcast, talk about the shame Ramona feels when not feeling well. The origin story of her shame? Her own judgement. 

Then Matt asks what's the best etiquette for splitting checks in group outings generally, and birthday celebrations specifically.

Buckle up for the laughter because this one is... something. 

It starts with JD being bamboozled by a bat at a Halloween store which turns into pranks are only for children which turns into what would you do if you saw a dead guy?

But the gold really gets struck when JD tries us to amaze us the revelation that you can no longer by a single stamp.

Which spoiler: you totally can.

It's just that he didn't buy a stamp. He wound up spending extra money and buying extra envelopes and well, it's best (and funniest) just to hear it from him.

It's an age old question, really.

On today's pod, Matt makes the case that uncrustables are good for all ages and he has the backing of The Wall Street Journal... The periodical did a deep(ish) dive on adults that enjoy the 90's lunchbox staple that was meant for kids. 

Is there a cutoff age for children's snacks?

Ramona expresses disappointment in the things Matt doesn't tell her. Like he's going to be in the Matthews Alive prade. *And* that his USC daughter is pledging a sorority. 

Yay for that!

Until. JD talks about the time he was in a fraternity and worked for a sorority. His description caused half of the studio about fell apart in side-splitting laughter and we're sure you will, too...

Matt's answer was always. Ramona's was far more conservative. Hear the whole conversation on Matt's strengths, weaknesses and weirdness as a driver. 

It will not shock you that he has a few odd driving habits.
