Swish Edition

It’s the Season 15 season finale episode, y’all! Before we start our two month summer hiatus, Kristin and Scott are talking about all the silly pop culture topics of the week from Kristin’s basement in Northern Virginia. YES! They are in the same room on the same coat for this episode. This week’s topics include: A man kills his nudist camp neighbors over a gifted hot dog; Cher’s thoughts on plastic surgery; actor Kelsey Grammer is expecting his 8th child at 70 years old; the “Friends Experience” and a “Netflix House” are coming to Las Vegas, as well as country icon Dolly Parton; an alligator escapes from a UHaul at an Alexandria, Virginia motel; people are up in arms about Chik-fil-A’s paper vs. styrofoam cups in 12 U.S. states; KFC’s chicken and biscuit scented candles are back in stock; and, tons of other crazy news and views of the week that was, live on tape from Herndon, Virginia. NOTE: This is the last episode of Season 15. Kristin and Scott will return with new episode on September 10, 2025.

The penultimate episode has landed! As we wrap up Season 15, we’re talking about the backlash over Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s Venice, Italy wedding; “Sharknado” comes to life in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina; Universal’s ‘Horror Unleashed’ attraction gets an opening date in Las Vegas; AppleTV’s “The Fountain of Youth” movie ain’t all that; a man (behaving badly) breaks a priceless piece of art in an Italian museum; the “Smartless” podcast guys and the Trump Organization announce cell phone companies; Pixar announces their new “Gatto” movie, about a cat, duh; the “And Just Like That…” series goes to Williamsburg, Virginia (kind of); Liam Neeson’s “The Naked Gun” movie reboot releases a trailer; Paris’ Louvre museum has reached its breaking point; and, much more pop culture news and views for the week that was.

After this, we’ll have the Season Finale episode out on June 25, then Kristin and Scott will be off for the Summer. Season 16 will kick off on Wednesday, September 10.
