It's our last episode of 2025!

Ho ho ho, awesome people! In this holiday episode we unpack the very real condition of holly jolly exhausted (Kelly’s official diagnosis). Then we bounce through birthday feelings, whether it’s easier to bond with babies vs. preteens/teens, and Don hits Kelly with the top trending Christmas songs… which are somehow both hilarious and mildly alarming.

And yes—then we take a sharp left into Don’s burgeoning love for Timothée Chalamet, including the internet rumor that he might secretly be a masked rapper (because of course).

This is our last episode of 2025—we’re taking a little break and will be back around mid-January. Try your best to get by without us. 😉
