Questions and Answers

Send us Fan MailStacy and Carol record their “Start a List” episode from a hotel room at the Inn at Christmas Place in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, on their first mini trip together since retiring, noting travel fatigue and improvised tech. They interview each other with random questions: both would time travel to the past (Carol to the late 1940s–50s; Stacy to revisit childhood and grandparents), neither can fold a fitted sheet, and they share best and worst jobs (Stacy's worst: briefly waitressing at O’Charley’s; best: working at Opryland; Carol's daycare job cleaning bathrooms as a needed tradeoff, and her current specialty-cheese grocery job). Pet peeves include unpreparedness, loud phone use in restaurants, bad driving, and lateness. Carol coins “chap shadow” after a student used menthol Chapstick as eyeshadow. Stacy recounts a bizarre teacher gift: a lace-and-ribbon Bible hot-glued to a small podium. They discuss lifetime supplies (popcorn, chips and queso, sleep/health, money) and propose Olympic sports like cooking dinner or dancing, then recommend the hotel and wrap up.https://startalistwithcarolandstacy.buzzsprout.com
