Ok, usually I just do a post to let you know there’s a new episode of the podcast, which this is! There is a new episode of the podcast! You can listen to it here. If you have already listened, please consider this comment section as your official discussion thread. If you have not yet listened, our guest was comedian Alex Edelman, who talked to us about lots of things, including his groundbreaking new Broadway show Just For Us. If you want to see that, you can get tickets here! You should go, he’s a talented person and very funny.
Now, in case you didn’t see on Instagram, here is a picture of the faux-Western wacky, damaged floors I am eager to replace in my house because the prior owner let some stray cats (and at least one stray raccoon) eat off of them. I also have included the company’s “business card” that they branded into the corner of my living room, in case you want to go back to the 60s or 70s and call them! No shame allowed if you think the floors are cute & I should keep them. They’re not & I’m not, but you are definitely entitled to your opinion & I love you.
Annnnd, here are Busy’s Pig Pots that she’s planning to plant with succulents so they then become “Succulent Pigs.” To me, they are clearly heavily influenced by early Miss Piggy and they are works of art. Busy says they’re her financial off-ramp to getting out of show business. Well, I’ll take a hundred, how about you?
Also, a lot of you have been asking for links to the birthday gifts I got for Biz. And not in that way where a budding influencer says that a lot of people have been asking about their skincare routine, when in fact, nobody actually asked. A bunch of you REALLY DID ASK! I got them from Amazon. I know. Don’t come for me, please! And I’m not an Amazon affiliate so I don’t get any money if you buy these from there or anywhere else, so if you find them somewhere else you prefer to shop from, that’s great!
NOTEBOOKS WITH LINED PAPER/PEN LOOP/INNER FOLDER/ELASTIC CLOSURE
MEMOQUEEN MINI STICKER PRINTER
ADHESIVE THERMAL STICKER PAPER & OTHER ADHESIVE THERMAL STICKER PAPER
I know at least one of you is gonna say, “But thermal paper contains harmful BPAs!!!” And thank you for being that vigilant bitch worried for our safety. I really mean it! But, I checked and this paper says it is BPA free. Now, I don’t know if Busy’s used the printer yet, so no real review on how it works, but I will leave that to her to tell us about in the future.
What else, what else? It’s been a little minute since I put up a fun throwback ep of you know what. So, should I do that? Just be cool & don’t get me in trouble with the law, ok?
Finally, since it’s almost Friday, let’s do a little FREE STUFF FRIDAY! This week’s giveaway is a book by my genius friend Laura Belgray, plus some other little treats to go with. If you watch “Live with Kelly and Mark” you may have seen Kelly Ripa raving about both Laura & her book recently. If you want to be entered to win it, drop any old comment below & I’ll pick a winner at random sometime soon. Let’s say Sunday night?
Ok, I think that’s everything I’ve been wanting to share with you for now! I said I might do a packing tips post if people want that. I did one a long time ago, that you can revisit HERE. However, I am thinking of what other packing tips I have in my brain that might be of interest to you! Also, I want to hear what other types of posts would be of interest to you at all! Your support means the world to us & it would be so cool if we could deliver the kind of content you feel like you need to get you through your day, y’know? Let us know. We love you!!!
Best moment of the podcast (among stiff competition of many great moments) was when Alex said that sometimes he gets 1 h 40 minutes into the podcast and that’s all he can do. He unwittingly said this exactly 1 h and 40 minutes into the episode 😂
I don’t know if anyone else has left a suggestion for a top notch ice cream scoop to replace Emily BB’s but I have one I love! It’s a Martha Stewart one from Macys. We have broken so many and this one is heavy duty. I use it on my milk alternative ice cream (since I find them a light harder to scoop) and it works great!
