Terry Gross, eat your heart out. On this week's Free Feed, we're tan and ready to gab about a follow-up from the friend who was on the business end of a letter we received a few weeks ago.

Welcome to Boston Logan International Airport. Wouldn't you love to hear Ronna's mellifluous voice say that every time you land in Boston? It could happen!

Then it's on to a letter writer who's LIVID about an adventure invitation gone terribly wrong. And we end on a dog hair drama that threatens an otherwise ideal living situation.

WE. ARE. BACK! Our summer break was INCREDIBLE, pardon me. Or at least we assume it was since we're in the Time Machine. But, come on, it probably was. We've got a fabulous little episode for our first show back, too. After some talk about how horrifying crabs are and how Stanley Cups are very much not "in" anymore, we've got a follow-up from the introverted boss and give advice on two questions: how to handle a possible workplace mutiny and how to balance family needs back home with your own needs when you live abroad. And if you weren't already looking forward to the holidays, here's something else to add to your list: we're coming back to New York! Ronnukah LIVE! is headed to the Bell House on November 21st for TWO shows! For those in the know, Ronnukah is our favorite time of year, and the fact that we're going LIVE this season is something we're VERY excited about!

It's that time of year! We get to review some of the craziest, most shocking, and most FUN cliffhangers we've received this season. So buckle up and get ready for The Dirty Bird Special!  For this year's collection we've got some real doozies. First off it's Mushroom Lasagna's insane friend who gets sexual pleasure from bidets (yes, it's as out of control as you think it is). Then we follow it up with one of the most disgusting letters we've ever received; the mom who's decided there's no need to wash her hands with soap anymore. And finally, we re-live one of our favorites; the massage saga of Tugboat Willy. Not yet a member of Patreon? As you can tell from this week's episode, you're missing out!

Ronna's ready to record, even if she's sitting at a toddler table in a spare bedroom. But don't blame her. Her new LA pied-à-terre is still getting nipped and tucked, so this was the only space that wasn't abuzz with activity.  But she (& Bryan) have a fab show in store for you! After Ronna receives shocking news about (Bryan)'s parents and their heights, they give advice on tattoo regrets and setting boundaries with a parent.  (Bryan)'s Off-Broadway show ARE YOU MAD AT ME is almost done with its run, and if you're in the area, it's a MUST see.
