Mallory and Trace take the podcast on the go and travel to many Christmas spots in Kansas City! First up is Merry Market, a vendor event at the City Market. Next up is Tinsel Town, just one of many holiday pop up bars in the metro - this one is at Town's Town in downtown KC. Lastly, they venture to Bonner Springs and visit Knights of Lights brought on by the Renaissance Festival!

Mallory and Trace head to Kingsville, Missouri to check out the Festival of Lights at Powell Gardens AND their first holiday pop up bar of the season - Mele Kalikimaka, which is located at Powell Gardens. In addition to reviewing the Festival of Lights, they also review the treats and hot cocoa in Santa's Bakeshop at Martin City Brewing Company.

Mallory and Trace try out the ice terrace at Crown Center and head on over to Union Station to check out holiday decorations (and BONUS: they go to Museum of Illusions while at the train station). Mallory also gives information on upcoming Christmas events in downtown Kansas City!

Mallory and Trace take on Van Gogh Alive: The Experience at Starlight Theaters (and presented by the Nelson-Atkins) - an immersive art exhibit based around Vincent Van Gogh's life and artwork. They discuss prime details about the experience and share information about the engaging artwork inside, such as how it differs from the "normal" museum experience. 

Mallory and Trace adventure around Kansas City and visit five of the most popular burger joints: Tay's Burger Shack, Snack Shack, Town Topic, Westport Flea Market, and LC's. They determine which eatery has the BEST burger (and the not so best burger) of the five places they visited.

Mallory & Trace head to Louisburg, Kansas to check out the Family Farm at Louisburg Cider Mill! From corn mazes and a petting zoo, to apple cider donuts and soda - they review everything about the Family Farm and the Louisburg Cider Mill Country Store. 

Mallory and a group of friends - Hannah, Trace, and Jack - try out the frightening & live action escape room in the West Bottoms and share their experience in this episode! The Basement KC is sure to get your adrenaline pumping with a LIVE actor inside the room with you. Definitely a fun twist on your normal escape room!

Attention Harry Potter nerds... this one is for you! Mallory and this episode's special guest, Kaylee, take a Sorting Hat Mixology Class in downtown Kansas City put on by Men That Mix. In the month of October, Men That Mix will be hosting Sorting Hat (Harry Potter themed), "Diznee", and Spooky mixology classes - so buy your tickets soon before the end of the month!
