That Pine Cone Is Breathing

from Shift Happened

The gang’s back together… and immediately choosing chaos.First, we go full holiday road rage therapy, because Rushmore Crossing has everyone white knuckling their steering wheel and questioning how two-way stops were ever allowed to exist. Then we swing into real Christmas tree paranoia, where praying mantis egg sacks are hiding in plain sight like tiny pine cones with bad intentions. And finally, we celebrate National Chocolate Covered Anything Day, which turns into a rapid-fire snack draft featuring everything from frozen chocolate banana bites to South Dakota’s proudly predictable favorite. Plus, Merriam-Webster drops the 2025 Word of the Year, and yep… it’s exactly what your timeline has been feeling lately. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
