Listen "From Holiday Dress Codes to Human Cannonballs"

The discussion takes unexpected turns as they venture into predictions for 2025, celebrating Teddi's recent 71st birthday, and engaging in a frank discussion about end-of-life preferences - including Teddi's memorable declaration that she'd rather be shot out of a cannon than have a traditional funeral, and Melissa's costume party where you dress as yourself from the future. Through their signature blend of professional insight and personal experience, they examine how holiday dress codes reflect deeper family dynamics and cultural expectations, while their musings about the future reveal how age and experience shape our relationship with fashion and self-expression.
