This week on Adventures of Des and Cort, we're just out here trying to survive... and the universe is making it unnecessarily difficult.

Idaho is currently covered in smoke so thick Des swears she's been smoking a pack a day. Every breath feels sponsored by Marlboro, and after reading one alarming article online, she's now convinced opening a window for too long might send her straight into cardiac arrest. (Please don't fact-check us. We're simply reporting from the panic section of the internet. 😂)

Then Cort recaps her trip to Michigan, and let's just say preparing for an early flight in your 40s is a completely different experience than it was in your 20s. Back then, you just... didn't go to bed. Now it's all about getting a solid six or seven hours of sleep because functioning on two hours is no longer a personality trait. And don't even think about traveling without your entire skincare routine. Missing one night? Absolutely not. We've worked too hard on these faces to let airport travel undo all our progress.

Getting home, however, was where the real chaos began. If you've checked a bag, that 45-minute cutoff before your flight is a hard 45 minutes...not 46. Unfortunately, an airline employee seemed absolutely determined to prove that point. She was loud, dramatic, and apparently operating under a strict "kindness is not included with your ticket" policy. You know the type. Less "How can I help?" and more "I'm going to make this a problem." Thankfully, cooler heads prevailed, but it definitely added a little unnecessary excitement to the trip.

We also talk about one of our biggest pet peeves... people who excuse aggressive dogs by saying, "Oh, they're just protective." Protective of what? Des’s mom Dee was standing in her own yard when a neighborhood dog charged at her. Thankfully the owners called it back just in time, but let's agree that almost becoming a chew toy isn't a personality trait anyone should have to accept.

Naturally, we wander into a dozen side chats, laugh at ourselves more than anyone else, and somehow make smoke, airports, and neighborhood dogs all belong in the same conversation.

If your week has felt like one long string of "Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t... God damn," this episode is for you.
