A June 2003 wedding issue of Cosmopolitan magazine gives us some "naughty newlywed tips to keep your guy guessing" and we are legally obligated to discourage you from trying them out. 

Your friendly neighborhood Ava (Williams) is back and we've got ! Topics include  orange foods, cyber bullying (light), audiobooks and the Libby app, wool (give it a shot), Baldur's Gate, gift guides, pervy male authors, and more.  Plus,  a 2005 Cosmopolitan magazine gives us tips and tricks for not killing the snowboarding boyfriend we apparently hate because that would ruin Christmas or Hannukah! And finally we F**k, Marry, & Kill 3 mainstays of holiday decorations. Caution this episode contains *SPOILERS* for holiday classic The Haunted by Bentley Little, so hurry up and finish reading it before you listen to this one.

Happy Women's History Month, St. Patrick's Day, & April Fools Day! Don't freak out, but Jeanne and a very special guest host (Paul Bonanno) had a very important conversation about ex-satanic wizards. Topics include bowling, Squishmallows, Catholicism, periodontal surgery, and a whole lot of satanic wizardry.

Topics include holiday movies, Kathy Bates, Elon Musk (again), free speech, exciting Raised Wrong Pod news, TikTok surgeons, terrible parents & tiny baby instagram influencers, the imaginary Matthew Perry/Keanu Reeves feud, some strong feelings about Marvel movies, and lots of gift giving wisdom.
