Colin Anderson and Candice Chetta are talking about our fake Thornksglavings in an effort to pretend like we had any notion of what our holidays were going to wind up like! The holiday spirits are flowing free because that’s just how we do. About 4 bottles of wine later, here we are on the other side of another episode full of giggles! We talk Will & Grace and some other choice TV garbage, and all with our first STUDIO AUDIENCE in the form of some serious Garbage Barge fam! We hope you all had a fantastic Thanksgiving and thanks so much for playing along with us today!  (Drinking game: Take a drink any time Candice mispronounces something!)

Colin Anderson and Candice Chetta are mad! What else is new? This week it has everything to do about how conservatives cling so desperately to the idea that queerness and homosexuality has literally anything to do with pedophilia and sexual assault. Of course, Kevin Spacey enters this entire problem because of that really crappy statement he released a couple of weeks back where he thought it would be cute to excuse his predatory behavior by coming out of the closet. NOT TODAY, SATAN. NOT TODAY! Have a drink and come along for the ride, you won’t regret it!

Colin Anderson and Candice Chetta are back in their true form: Drunk and talking about Real Housewives! This episode is a fun one. We’re going to talk about what we’re Thornkful for, and help get all of our wonderful listeners into the Thornksglaving spirit! To round things out, we’re going to read Kandi’s cards: You may know and love her from the Real Housewives of Atlanta and Xscape Still Kicking It. What do you think the future holds for our favorite lady? Laugh along with us! Pour yourself a big old glass of red wine and get under something fuzzy – mammal or otherwise! (Take a drink every time Candice says “like” for a fun California-style drinking game!)

Information for this particular form of Cartomancy (You can also watch Stef Sanjati’s orignal video, linked below.):

For reading cards in this method, remove joker cards and any numbers below 9. You should be left with 9s, 10s, jacks, queens, kings, and aces.

Layout: Have the person you are reading shuffle the cards, or you shuffle the cards – hold the intention for which you are seeking clarity in your mind and in your hands as you work the cards. Deal out 7 cards at a time, flipping only the 7th card face up each time, forming a row. This will leave you with a small stack of face down cards, and four face up cards making a row. Do this process two more times, which should leave you with your original row of 4 cards, a new row of 3 cards, and another short row of 2 cards. The rest of the cards are done for this reading. Now you are ready to read!

Card Meanings:

Ace of:

Spades: Death/Serious Illness/Mental Health

Clubs: Correspondence/Communication

Diamonds: Wealth (loss/gain/use)

Hearts: Romance, Intimacy, Affection

10 of:

Spades: Trouble/Unease

Clubs: good time, good memory

Diamonds: a wish, a goal, an aspiration

Hearts: a trip, a movement from one place to another

9 of:

Spades: slight illness, relapse

Clubs: A home/familiar place

Diamonds: a gift, a favour, an offering

Hearts: close friend, family ties, familiar person

King: Man

Queen: Woman

Jack: Person (of any gender)

Colin Anderson and Candice Chetta rip into a member of one of their favorite 90’s boy band super groups, *N Sync. Justin Timberlake has appropriated music from the Jackson family since he started singing and dancing. The fact that he’s been invited back to the Super Bowl so many years after Janet Jackson was absolutely raked over the coals for years for what happened in 2004 is a problem, so we’re talking about it. Get mad, get drunk, and join us for this voyage of the Garbage Barge! Giggle along with us and remember to try to be a little less garbage every single day!

Colin Anderson and Candice Chetta are putting some serious meaning behind the words STRUG BOAT with this extremely intoxicated episode! We’re also welcoming Aaron into the studio with us today just for funsies! It’s been a hell of a week, and we accidentally drank 3 bottles of wine before we got to work, so this one gets a little sloppy at the end (Read: Candice gets a little sloppy at the end,) but it’s a hell of a ride! We’re dragging Taylor Swift, we’re talking Real Housewives and Gigi Hadid, and we’re reading some Goddess Oracle Guidance cards! There’s a couple of things said that make NO SENSE at all, just go with it. It’s the Strug Boat.

Colin and Candice are rereleasing their extremely heavy episode from just around a month ago. In the light of the horrible act of domestic terror in Sutherland Springs, Texas, we thought it would be appropriate to once again address the issue of white domestic terrorism. It is not ok that the minute this tragedy was reported that it was clear that the shooter was a white man because NO ONE WOULD CALL HIM A TERRORIST. It’s not ok that we continue to let white men get away with gun violence without addressing the very real and deadly nature of violent white men in this country. The numbers do not lie. White men with guns are the deadliest threat to Americans, so what the fuck are we going to do about it now?

Colin Anderson and Candice Chetta are doing what they do best: catching up on Bravo TV drama! There’s been a lot going on this week in the lives of some of our favorite Bravo TV stars, and we want to talk about it! We’re talking RHONY, RHOC and the shade Andy Cohen threw at Kathy Griffin! This episode is special because you can REALLY get that Brooklyn feeling with the litany of sirens in the background! Sorry if we make you a little paranoid. Make yourself a pint sized rose spritzer and join us on this voyage of the Strug Boat! It’s a good time!

Colin Anderson and Candice Chetta are pissed off at David Cross this week and you should be, too! Amber Tamblyn doesn’t fair very world when she rocks that White Feminism the way she does, either. So we’re talking about it. We’re drinking a ton of wine and we’re annoyed, so here we are, doing our thing! When you apologize, you need the own the garbage things you’ve done. When you apologize, you don’t gaslight and victim blame. As always, we really just want people to do better.

Colin Anderson and Candice Chetta have done what is maybe their favorite Strug Boat EVER. We’re eating some chicken nugs and talking all about fast food and junk food and living our entire truths in this episode! Do you share strong feelings about In-and-Out? Taco Bell? Tendies? Pick yourself up a Modelo Michelada and pour that sucker over some ice. Make yourself comfortable and let us give you some munchies! Did we miss something in fast food news this week? Please let us know, we’re always hungry for more. (See what I did there??!)

Colin Anderson and Candice Chetta are sick and tired of white folks thinking they get to invite themselves to the cookout for doing the absolute least. Being a good human being isn’t a thing that deserves a gold star, it’s what you should do because it’s the right thing to do. Don’t be a performative ally, don’t center yourself where you don’t belong. We drank a bottle of wine and are coming for you, listen up!
