If You Can’t Throw a Good Holiday Party, Don’t Throw One

The Super Bowl, Apparently

So. The Super Bowl. Bryan likes football. Amanda likes… everything else. Which means this episode is about the game and the commercials, the halftime show, prop bets, food opinions that get way too intense, and why the Super Bowl somehow works even when you don’t actually care who wins. No deep stats. No play-by-play. Just two people watching the same thing for very different reasons and arguing about it.

New year, New us?

Amanda and Bryan break down why New Year’s resolutions fail, why vague self-improvement goals are doomed, and why bingo cards might actually work better. Featuring Dry January debates, fad diets, half-marathon trash talk, a fake coyote attack, and one extremely convincing lie.

If You Can’t Throw a Good Holiday Party, Don’t Throw One

Holiday parties used to mean something—now they’re just cupcakes, chips, and obligation. This week, Bryan and Amanda debate whether holiday parties are worth saving at all. From disastrous corporate “celebrations” to themed home parties, standing-room-only rules, and the true hierarchy of holiday appetizers, we break down what makes a party great… and when it’s better to just hand out a gift card and call it a day. Along the way: white elephant resentment, meatballs vs vegetables, bologna nostalgia, and a deeply divisive eggnog take. If you’re going to throw a holiday party, do it right—or don’t do it at all.

Travel Hot Takes pt1: Welcome the Women's Caucus

This week, Amanda welcomes Megan and Nani to the Women’s Caucus for a high-altitude round of travel hot takes. We cover everything from Italy’s snack superiority to zipper-merge vengeance, airport-timing chaos, and the moral failure of duffle bags. Plus: kids should legally be required to have iPads on planes, lounges need a 21+ policy, and we design Venus Airlines — the first carrier exclusively for women and gay men, where you don’t even have to be conscious. Come for the short ribs in business class, stay for the chaos at Gate N.

Welcome to Creepy Times

Pumpkin spice, irrational anger, haunted dogs, and too many opinions about candy. Welcome to creepy times. The Hill We Die On — where siblings argue about everything that doesn’t matter.
