DAMTT- Fireworks, Water Works, and Character Quirks

Stacy is bringing even more Veranda Beach vibes to the pod than usual since she’s recording from ON her veranda this week. With kids, their plus ones, and plus ones visiting for the July 4th holiday weekend, it’s hard to eek out quiet space. The good part is kids visiting, great weather and fun adventures to wineries and mini golf; the flipside is that even adult children want to be fed three meals EVERY day! Aside from that, VB is an awesome spot to celebrate the holiday in a lowkey, family fun, and classic way. Eric and “The GF” will celebrate after a nice waterfront meal with a primo spot to watch the fireworks over Tacoma. Meanwhile, Gertie will hide out at home. Eric has good news in the form of his car’s database working again and bad news in the form of a leak that after multiple trips to the water meter, Home Depot, and Lowe’s is not yet fixed. He’s hoping there’s only fireworks over the holiday, no waterworks because any glue he has at home has dried up (Eric definitely did not point fingers at the culprit). If any listeners out there have a solution for effectively closing glue (and food in general), let us know! Although Stacy’s daughter suggested she watch White Chicks for her CBS, Stacy watched the 1970 movie M*A*S*H instead. She watched and loved the TV show so decided to check out the movie. She enjoyed it and appreciated the coping with humor, satirical commentary it must have represented during the time of the Vietnam war. Eric watched Whatever Happened to Baby Jane after hearing Stacy’s take and was also riveted by the acting and actors that chewed up the screen and story. He and The GF also enjoyed Widow’s Bay, an Apple original that’s both spooky and funny. As for bar soap versus body wash, Stacy and Eric agree, everyone needs a little bit of soap, but perhaps it should be sold in bulk like oatmeal? Or bring back soap-on-a-rope!
