Happy merry, Gary! We're taking a break from leaning back to talk about our personal holiday traditions and walk through the dark side of a beloved Christmas classic poem.

Welcome back to this spooky gas station, Gary, as we explore chapter five in a flurry of hot dogs and franks! We talk about memorable high school guest speakers, the anatomy of boy puppets, and Eliza really bagels her Vocabugary.

We scratch our way through chapter 4 while laughing heavily at our own jokes.

Having arrived at 'Salem's Lot (both the book and the town itself) we start ourselves off with a new theory for the JFK assassination, a talk about hometowns, and a heartfelt apology over an incident that, like everything, can be easily blamed on professional wrestling. We'd love to hear your thoughts, TPEOCQ answers, and whether you know someone born on September 5, 1975!

The queens of King cover the prologue of "'Salem's Lot" before sticking their fangs into the book proper. Including the introduction of Stephen King's first-ever author protagonist, Charley scratching at a chance to win $2000, and a putabuela that's as stabby as cherry pie. Quit dancing and lean, Gary, because it's 'Salem's Loiterin'!Do you have an answer for our TPEOCQs, or an opinion on patriotic pie?
