Episode 19: Little Miss Stoneybrook... And Dawn

The kids of Stoneybrook are doing a beauty pageant and the babysitters are wildly overinvested in it! Meanwhile, we decide which contemporary Irish literary icons we have grudges against (spoiler: it's most of them). Today's agenda includes: a deep dive into traditional joke formats; period-accurate Wild Mountain Thyme fashions; JUSTICE FOR SABRINA BOUVIER; more root vegetable chat; things that make us cry, on a scale of 'BSC Induction Ceremony' to 'Christmas Truce'; a guaranteed way to get rid of youths; pumpkin-smashing conspiracy theories; the best talent in the history of talents; the worst euphemism in the history of euphemisms; political theory for five-to-eight-year-olds; the silly phase that never ends. Our theme song is "The Incredible Shrinking Larry" by Matt Oakley on the Free Music Archive.
