So, you missed some of this today? Click to listen: Our listeners come through on ideas for the Minnesota Adventure Cards that didn't suggest anything in southwest Minnesota. Listen to get some ideas! Also today, the international wife carrying competition WILL be happening in June! We suggest some strategy. We have an episode of "Am I the Jerk?" a Jason Mraz song and story that leaves us both near tears, talk about resolutions, Amazon ads, Pierce Brosnan shenanigans in Yellowstone AND In The Kitchen...New Year beverage ideas!
Fruit cake day-a day to try to get rid of the fruit cake you were given? Looking at a list of the best books for 2023, Tim said a certain word in the title is "lazy." That goes for movies too. What is the word? One of the books was Prince Harry's "Spare." We took a little deep dive on British royalty after that one. Plus, a good news generator, resolutions, and shows to watch. Have a listen!
Hey, WE didn't make this up. It's National Whiners Day. We assume it's about not getting what you wanted for Christmas. We did have a gift show and tell today. Other topics today: you are urged to USE those gift cards, why did they original Exorcist movie come out at Christmas? Reports are that "Rescuing Christmas" (filmed in Duluth) is pretty bad, Mariah Carey sets another record, and a feel good story about a lost dog right here in Minnesota.

Laura's expert baker aunt swears something has changed with butter and it wrecked her cookies. Comment below if you agree. We had a local woman, Lisa Larsen Carlson on the show to talk about finding a vintage toy in a thrift store WITH HER PICTURE ON IT! Also, guess the most-Googled person of 2005 (listen to find out...and why), our last Christmas Gift idea that we have both actually purchased, a DMX AI Christmas song, and Jessica Simpson's Christmas gift from her BFF Kim Kardashian. She gave her a WHAT??
We're back after some technical difficulties kept us away from the podcast for a couple days. And it was a fun day! Hear about speculation that some might get preferential treatment on TikTok, HOW many guns were confiscated by TSA this year?? Laura shares another Christmas gift idea. It's a game, that led to our "Match Tim" contest. Finally, why you should sleep nude, and the In The Kitchen tip: how to keep Christmas cookies soft and fresh!

We learned on the podcast that today (December 18) is one of the top 5 days for engagements, we were "moved" by Gronk's National Anthem singing, we shared another gift idea that's great for readers, and a former American Idol got in trouble hosting her son's birthday part at an Airbnb. Click to listen! - Tim & Laura
"We have coupons so the value of the items we stole drops below felony level!" Not us, mind you. But you have to hear that story! It did lead to a story of Tim's dad's fatherly advice when Tim got in trouble. We also talked about Pew Research's most striking findings of 2023, the history of ugly Christmas sweaters, and our Christmas gift idea of the day for that someone who likes it HOT!
What is the holiday song that cuts right to the feels? It's on the podcast today. :( We had some fun imagining the plot of the newest Hallmark Christmas movies, we got to hear Cher's new Christmas song, today's Christmas gift idea worked for "In The Kitchen" too, and more. Click to listen and it would be such a gift to us if you clicked "subscribe!"
The chances of a white Christmas are not looking good in the extended forecast. Some of our listeners weigh in on how they feel about that. Laura got confused about the meaning of a song's BPM (beats per minute), key signature, and whether it's major or minor, The Knot website has revealed what THE most popular wedding day was this year, our Christmas gift ideas will "light up your world," and we even talked about sports announcers (Al Michaels and Tony Romo).

Thanks for checking out what you missed on this podcast!
"Stayin' Alive" is ONE of the songs that has the CPR beats per minute, but there's a bunch more and we played a few of them. Also on the podcast, you'll hear Laura doesn't like a candidate for "person" of the year, make sure you up to date on the latest trends like boy dinners and wrap getaways, why going to bed at the same time nightly might be more important than the number of hours you sleep, and how about a Christmas wrapping getaway at a hotel?

Yep, "Authentic" is the word of the year...mostly because of all of the news about that which is NOT authentic: A.I. And that apparently goes for Sports Illustrated. Wait until you hear what they got busted doing. We heard from a 100% A.I. singer/songwriter. Eh, GONG please. Also Laura's suitcase handle woes and boring tasks that some people actually enjoy.
In this opening of a two-part discussion, Professor Tim Burns guides the guys through a thoughtful discussion on Leo Strauss, democracy, technology, and the role of liberal education.

Find out on this podcast what Thanksgiving-related things people are searching around the country. Also, neither one of us has had shoofly pie, but after looking it up, we think we'd like to try it! We each had some realistic dreams: Tim's lost Roomba location (it's not where he dreamed it was) and Laura's cat was not abducted (as she dreamed it).

Click to listen and we'd be so "thankful" if you shared it and/or subscribed!
Yep, Tim's Roomba is nowhere to be found. Some listeners offered thoughts on where THEY found theirs...some, after months!

On the podcast today: While discussing the foods most people like but our listeners hate, we learned so much about the chemicals in cucumbers! Tim keeps taunting Laura with clips of Christmas songs. Today, make sure you hear a segment of what is being called the worst Christmas song ever! We also covered 1930s slang words we'd like to see come back, McCrocs, and a few interesting origins of big corporations' names.
Yep, "tarantula" has to be our winner on the "strange foods people have eaten" topic. A lot of good listener participation on this one! We also talked about the 1984 movie "NeverEnding Story" on this, the birthday of the lead kid Noah Hathaway.

Neither of us is going out of our way to celebrate cappuccino day. How about you? Tim might try the Heinz pickle flavored ketchup though. So many things today! How did Laura surprise her husband for his birthday? Why, or why, didn't Tim smell Garth OR Keith Urban?? And listen to the end to hear some of the stars of Willmar High School's musical, "Grease" (opening this weekend). - Tim & Laura
On the podcast today: What's the thing you borrowed that broke while in your possession? (The owner of Tim's broken thing must have been a SAINT)! Cat owners may find interest in the many expressions cats have (would you believe there are more than human expressions?), "Crispy nachos? Or Soggy Nachos?" And why did Laura declare, "The gentleman yields the floor!" ??

Or, the Death of Cinema podcast Nicole Veneto joins from Boston to discuss Alex Winter and Tom Stern's irreverent, gag-filled 1993 monster comedy 'Freaked'. The film is a genuine cult classic that was greelit, following the success of the Bill & Ted films and Winter and Stern's short-lived MTV program 'Idiot Box', with an impressive $12 million budget and then quickly killed by 20th Century Fox after a change in management. We discuss the film's unique cacophony of styles, taking inspiration from a number of cultural objects including Zucker Brothers comedies, punk rock legends Butthole Surfers, classic beach party films, and The Evil Dead movies. Then we praise the legendary team of practical special effects and makeup artists (including veterans of John Carpenter films like 'Big Trouble in Little China' and Chuck Russell's classic 1988 remake of 'The Blob') who brought the hilarious cast of freaks to life. Finally, we detail the executive decisions that very nearly railroaded 'Freaked' out of existence, and eulogize the brief moment in time when big studio money was willing to gamble on spectacular, impractical filmmaking and craft.
