Episode 153 | Wowed, Oohed, & Aahed

This week, the Biffs tackle Thanksgiving chaos courtesy of Dear Prudence and Dear Abby: one man is appalled his wife wants to help the less fortunate on a holiday (unthinkable), and one older sister is being roped into cooking the entire feast for a sibling who’s “hosting” in name only. Stefani and Ray bring peak sarcasm and zero patience for seasonal nonsense. Expect righteous indignation, a touch of holiday guilt-tripping, and the annual reminder that family gatherings are just team-building exercises with higher stakes. [Côté Mas Orange, 2024]
