146: White Lotus Ep 1: Tropical Kabuki & A Big Bottle of Suck Sauce

We are beginning our new series this week, The White Lotus. It's a dark 'comedy' instead of a rom-com but since we're in October it seems fitting. In our first episode we learn that the White Lotus is a luxury resort in Hawaii where we meet 'The Arrivals': the Mossbacher Family, Tanya McQuoide, and The newlywed Suttons who all have reservations at the posh accommodations. During the first days we realize that everyone has their own secrets and struggles bubbling under the surface that will eventually materialize as the series goes on. In this episode we: give pro travel tips like 'don't travel with your mom's ashes in a garbage bag', discuss whether the 'Pineapple' in the Pineapple Room stands for swingers or hospitality and describe how the glorious Jennifer Coolidge will suck the life out of us (and we'd probably like it). This series has everything diva twins, a prick baby man and the plunge pool Corinne requires so we hope you join us this week for our standing reservation at The White Lotus.
