Did you love that for us?

Big moves feel different when they start at home. We kick off a new year with a sharper show identity, a brand-new intro courtesy of DJ Slink, and a title switch that finally sounds like us: Do We Love That? The premise is simple and bold—make the choice, own it, and keep moving—because that’s how our real conversations go.

We share how family feedback pushed us to level up, from tightening our cold open to launching a five-minute hot-seat that forces fast decisions. You’ll hear us speed through the calls everyone argues about: are Christmas movies a win or a skip, Coke or Pepsi loyalty, when to take down the tree, and whether winter means warming the car or just driving cold. We even get into snow day hacks like wipers up vs. down and why Jersey habits die hard. It’s playful, opinionated, and designed to invite your voice into the mix.

Upgrades are part of the story too. New microphones are in the studio pipeline to improve sound quality for guests and rapid segments, and we talk honestly about the tradeoffs of expanding to YouTube while protecting the cozy morning recording vibe that keeps us real. Nostalgia threads through everything—Friends-style episode nods, Everybody Loves Raymond memories, and a quick detour into holiday updates, family travel, and the board games currently on our table, from Horrified to Yellowstone.

If you’ve been with us since the “Hope” era, this is the evolution you asked for: clearer titles, tighter pacing, and more ways to jump in. If you’re new here, welcome to a show that blends humor, honesty, and everyday choices with a warm, 90s-infused heart. Hit play, then tell us your picks: Coke or Pepsi? Wipers up or down? And what should we decide on next?

Enjoy the ride, share this episode with a friend who needs a laugh, and tap follow so you never miss our next Do We Love That sprint. Your hot take could be the spark for our next segment.

Heather:

So we've got some changes going, and there's a lot of changes, so let's just start with them all. First. Okay. What did you think of that intro?

Zia:

Well, don't we love it? And we definitely want to thank DJ Slank Yeah. Crazy Me. Crazy Me had a crazy idea. And um I sent an email to him uh just with some crazy little uh notations about our podcast. Yep. And he did love one sentiment I put in there uh specifically. Uh he found very funny because I said, you know, we're 50, we're doing a podcast, and you know, we're old, but we're not dead. So he said that was just so funny. Um in his own words, but he said it was funny, and uh he said, yes, please go ahead and use it. So we just want to shout out to him for just thank you for letting us use this. Um it has been in my car for months, almost like a year now. Yes, we've been listening. Many, many months, uh, and it's just yeah, and um I agree a lot of his songs should be used for different things too.

Heather:

Like his football anthem, that's where I know that's where I knew him first from was his football anthem.

Zia:

Yeah, and I feel like you know, there's a lot of football teams out there agreeing on that one. Yeah. So let's get a move on that. Come on. Um, you know, let's we're you know, we're in the mood of you know, a new year, so let's change some things around as we are.

Heather:

We are making lots and lots of changes this week. Absolutely. Well, between this week and next week. So basically it's gonna be a new year, a brand new podcast. By the time January comes, we'll have in theory all of our changes um updated. Um, and a lot of them come from family support. Um, as you all know, my daughter was here last week with us, Eliza. Yeah, and your son was actually hanging out in the background. Absolutely. Um, and uh after we were done, they started both of us independently, had conversations with our kids and ideas.

Zia:

Yeah.

Heather:

Um, and and they were giving us ideas on things to change on our podcast. For example, we've been sticking with the hope is with our titles. Absolutely, but I think we're gonna change it to do we love that?

Zia:

Right.

Heather:

Or do we love or something along that line. We're not sure. We're still working on that. That's a work in progress yet.

Zia:

Yeah, uh we just hoped everybody loved us, so that's why we started with that.

Heather:

That is where it came from. We hope that's why it was the episode one. A lot of hope. A lot of hope was uh uh a new hope because we were making a new hope, and then and then we just stuck with that because I mean it was kind of funny. It was and we we did a couple. Now, not so much, right? It's it's getting old, and as we were told by our children, that we needed to change it. We needed to change, need change. Change it is so we're gonna do uh do we love or do we love that or something along that line. Not quite sure yet. We're working on that.

Zia:

Yeah, but we do have a lot of family support in our little podcast, and we appreciate that because we love the feedback, and they're people we actually will listen to.

Heather:

Yes, as a matter of fact, almost all of our children between us have asked to be on the podcast.

Zia:

Absolutely.

Heather:

So and I don't know if I told you this. Um, I'm not sure if you saw it, but on our Instagram, one of our direct messages was from a co-worker of both of ours. This person works in the district, and they asked if they could be a guest star. See that?

Zia:

I did see that.

Heather:

Yeah, I wasn't sure if you saw that, and I responded. I'm I'm sure you saw the response. I was like, sure, we'll work it out. Yeah. Um, this person is great. She's been working, uh, she worked with me in transportation when I was over there. And then, of course, when I went into the school, I saw her as one of the bus drivers. But I think that's amazing that she wants to be on it with us. Right. Um so um another one of our go ahead.

Zia:

We have little uh little sneak ins like that too. So it's just good that people are reaching out or that they're excited and yeah, looking forward to it.

Heather:

And if anybody wants to give us suggestions or ideas, direct message us. We don't um we have an email. Um, it is do we love that for you at gmail. Um but on our socials, all of those have direct messages, so you can reach us that way as well. Send suggestions, send ideas, send topics. I mean, if we like it, we'll talk about it. If we don't, I mean that's just the jersey.

Zia:

Yeah, that's just the jersey. We just might not love that.

Heather:

We don't want maybe we'll even say we got this suggestion and I don't want to talk about it because I don't love that for you.

Zia:

That's right. We don't love that for you. Yep, not even a little bit. I mean, if you want our opinion, if we love it for you or not, we're here for you.

Heather:

We will happily give that. Apparently, that is what we used to do too much. Absolutely. I mean, I still do it, but I I know we won't stop.

Zia:

Not even a little bit, but um, I think they inject they have I think they have a shot like that when you're born in Jersey. I think they just honesty shot and it just goes and then can't stop.

Heather:

Like when I was growing up, my grandpa used to say um we would stand in line and he would be like, You forgot you got out of line before they sent the brains. He used to say that all the time. Like, if we would do something stupid, he'd be like, Did you get out of line before the brains were handed out?

Zia:

Oh no, oh no, and my grandfather would just stare at me. It was just the stare, and I'd be like, I got it, I got it, I know, I know. Yep, we're done. All came back, all came back.

Heather:

But some of the other changes is I don't know, one of our favorite shows, um, more low-key on your side than my side. I'm more open about it, is of course friends. So, well, with the hope, we were doing the hope titles like the friends, you know, the one with. So we want to continue to keep it going that way. Yeah. Um, like a do we love that or do we love and and keep the friends theme because you know, friends is a 90s thing, and yeah, we were both old teenagers and young adults then, and yeah, and it it's watching that fun stuff. Yep. Yeah, they don't have TV like that anymore.

Zia:

No, they don't. We were just watching the Raymond uh Everybody Loves Raymond reunion. Yes. Love it. I actually cried a few times because it brought back a lot of memories of Michael being away and not being with me watching it at first. Yeah overseas, and then you know, he come home and he's like, What are you watching?

Heather:

And he'd be like, It's a great show, just to enjoy it.

Zia:

And then he would love it, you know. It's just it's those little memories that quick and you know.

Heather:

Yeah. So Rich is was never into the friends world. He was he was a little older, he was having his first round of children during that. So he he didn't really get into the friends world, but when we started dating a million years ago, he he watched it. So he he has the ideas of them. He yeah, doesn't get the jokes the way we do, but right.

Zia:

Yep. And I watched it, but it wasn't like it was just something to watch for me. Um I didn't really pick up on a lot of people that I connected with in it or liked. Yeah, um, I just really just watched it as oh, this is a good show, you know.

Heather:

You're you're more you're more of a combo character in reality. You're a little bit of of almost everybody in there.

Zia:

Yeah.

Heather:

Where I've where I'm focused more on one or two characters, in my opinion, you're like three or four characters at them.

Zia:

Right. Right.

Heather:

So I get that.

Zia:

Yep. Yep. I needed the like everybody loves Raymond, or you know, I used to went Chicago Hope.

Heather:

Yes, ER.

Zia:

Yeah, well, I wasn't ER, that's why I went to Chicago Hopes. You went to Chicago Hopes, yeah.

Heather:

So which is funny because the hospitals were, I mean, in the way they implied, the hospitals should have been like right next door to each other.

Zia:

Yeah, and Mark Hamill was in that, and so was Manny Petankin, and I loved Manny Petankin.

Heather:

So our youngest, Angela, she never saw House. Oh my god. So we just went through the whole series with her of House.

Zia:

Alex would love to do that. That's his favorite show.

Heather:

I I you know, I forgot how much I enjoyed it. And um watching it with her, I was like, yes, you know, there were parts of it that I didn't like, of course, but that's with every series, but absolutely yeah. So um I love it. Another thing we got, um, you bought got for us are new mics. Yes, yes, we are not using them because we could not figure it out in time, yeah. But yeah, we just didn't want to try and how you got them.

Zia:

Okay, so I we just didn't want that echo. We were trying a little bit before we started, but we were just worried about an echo. But um I I was like, you know what? I see all these uh people with these beautiful little mics, and I got a little jelly. So I was like, I think we need this in our life. I love this for us.

Heather:

I love this for us, yes.

Zia:

Yeah, I love this for us. I think we need to do this. So as soon as we get them up and running, we will there's another change we'll be using. That we'll be using our mics.

Heather:

And the nice thing about the mics is that there's we each have two, so when we have guest speakers, if we're with the guest speaker, we can um just hand that over. There you go.

Zia:

Yep.

Heather:

I lost my sentence there.

Zia:

I got you.

Heather:

I know that's why we work. Yep.

Zia:

Um so yeah, it's you know, so I got you know, they they always have those little fluffy pom-poms in front of them when they talk.

Heather:

And I I'm missing my fluffy pom-pom. I know it. I need our youngest to get that on.

Zia:

If I if I was there, I'd get the fluffy pom-pom on for you.

Heather:

You would help me. My fingers don't work that way.

Zia:

No, no, but yeah. We know that.

Heather:

We know you know my fingers don't work that way.

Zia:

Yeah, yep. So, yeah, so we decide. I was like, we need these in our life.

Heather:

We did.

Zia:

Yep. Yep.

Heather:

So that's another change. That's not even on our notes for the changes that we were doing that.

Zia:

That was another change, yep. So we're doing that. Oh goodness, I'm just moving up and atom.

Heather:

I'm gonna add that because you know, it'll be it'll be reminiscent when we look back.

Zia:

That's right, that's right. And you know, just uh little little bit of jealousy, you know, get you get you motivated.

Heather:

Well, if you want that, then you know, our our handy-dandy producer here says we could make this into a YouTube and just make the video of us, we could put it up on YouTube. Yeah, then I wouldn't be able to sit here in my jammies.

Zia:

I know, me too.

Heather:

I know, I know we are recording this. We said we were gonna record it Friday night, but life being life, we decided to do it Friday morning.

Zia:

And yeah, so no drinking in the morning.

Heather:

Exactly. We yeah, we were promising that. I do have the case.

Zia:

I do have the coke. I do have the coke.

Heather:

You are drinking coke, yeah. Um, and as you saw, we put a teaser up on our uh story today. I did a story instead of a post. I put a story. Um, but yeah, we didn't do a Friday night recording, we're doing it Friday morning because honestly, I'm I'm a morning person. I'd rather get up and get going.

Zia:

Me too. And you know, the house is quiet, and I like to do it then too. Yep.

Heather:

Yeah, it's easier for us in the morning.

Zia:

Absolutely. But we're excited about all our little changes.

Heather:

I know, me too. We have another met we have another big change that we're gonna start incorporating into the podcast.

Zia:

Go ahead and tell us about it. Oh, well, we have our uh five-minute uh like little five-minute do we love it.

Heather:

Hot takes. Eliza called it hot takes.

Zia:

Hot takes, yes.

Heather:

Hot takes, but we are not gonna do hot takes.

Zia:

We're gonna do do we love that? Do we love that?

Heather:

Or, you know, this or that kind of thing, you know. When I worked in the school with you, I must have been asked that. Would you rather I know oh my goodness, but now it's gonna be fun because it'll be adult more oriented, as opposed to would you rather uh let me see, what was my favorite? Six or a seven?

Zia:

No, just joking.

Heather:

Oh Lord. We talked about that last week. We're done.

Zia:

Yep, we're done.

Heather:

No more six sevens.

Zia:

Yep.

Heather:

No, I think one of the ones the one of the kids asked me, it was the it was our wonderful hugger boy that I that I love and miss so much. Yes. He asked me one time, would I rather fly to the moon in a rocket ship or with wings that I could strap on? Wow. And I I said, Does he want the real answer or the fun answer? And he was confused, but he thought about it a moment, and he said he wanted the real answer. And I said, Well, it would have to be a rocket ship because if I strapped wings on, I would probably die halfway there.

Zia:

Right.

Heather:

He didn't know how to take that, so he just gave me a hug and we moved on.

Zia:

They don't think about the oxygen and the food and they don't think about it.

Heather:

That was, I think that was my favorite one. Would I rather fly to the moon in a rocket ship or with strap-on wings?

Zia:

Yeah. I love that for him. I never got those. I always get the kids that come up to me and would say, I have a riddle for you.

Heather:

Well, that's because you do your Friday morning jokes.

Zia:

I'm like, dear God.

Heather:

Your Friday funnies.

Zia:

Yeah.

Heather:

You do your Friday funnies, that's why.

Zia:

Yeah, and sometimes I sit there and I'm like, I don't even think this is a riddle. Like, I'm trying to figure it out. And I'm like, I I'm very anxious to hear the answer to this. And then you gotta give me one.

Heather:

You gotta give me one.

Zia:

Oh, I don't even think I remember them because I just don't want to remember them. There's like a glimpse of like what? Yeah, I don't like sometimes they just come up to me and be like very random, and they'll be like, There's a lady in a park, and she says hello to you. What do you say back? And I'm like, uh uh hello?

Heather:

How you doing?

Zia:

Yeah, and they're just like or not, and then they walk away, and I'm like, I don't know if I got it right or wrong.

Heather:

They don't even give you the right answer.

Zia:

No, they just go, okay. And I'm like, hmm. And sometimes like my other co-workers would be standing there, and I just look and I go, I I don't know. Did what did I say? Did you get it? Like, did they say it to you? No, just you. I'm like, okay, I don't know. Yep.

Heather:

Well, that just shows how loved you are.

Zia:

Oh, yes. For my for my just my answers, right?

Heather:

Again, just your answer. I mean, come on.

Zia:

Yeah. But it they called them riddles, though. They're like, this is a riddle. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Heather:

All right. So back to our five minutes. Yes, go ahead.

Zia:

Yes.

Heather:

So according to Eliza, we're not supposed to give answers. Like, we're just supposed to give the answer. Love it, hate it, or you know, A or B or whatever the answers are. So we were gonna do the five, we were just gonna do five in general. Yeah. But then we talked about it and we decided that that's not gonna work for us because we're gonna end up describing stuff and talking.

Zia:

So should we try it? Let's try it.

Heather:

All right, so this starts our official section of I love it. Five minutes. Do we love that? Do we love it? All right, Christmas movies. Love or hate.

Zia:

Love hate. Sorry.

Heather:

Me too. I like the ones that I like the ones that have like a real meaning and not just like a yay, it's Christmas.

Zia:

I'm like Christmas movie specific.

Heather:

Me too. Oh, yeah. And to give my daughter her uh approval, she did deem Die Hard is a Christmas movie. We watched it yesterday.

Zia:

Yes, Eliza. Yes, Eliza. Thank you very much.

Heather:

Shout out to Eliza. We fixed the problem. She saw Die Hard. I did not realize she had never seen Die Hard. So she we fixed it. Rich and Angela were like, wait, you never saw it? And that was what we watched yesterday.

Zia:

Love it. So thank you very much. Perfect. All right. Perfect.

Heather:

So we'll let you take the second. Do we love that?

Zia:

Um, actually, I don't think I don't have that open. No, I don't have it open. I'm so sorry. That's okay. It's Coke or Pepsi. Oh god, I'll take that one, Coke or Pepsi. Um, as you can probably see in the photo that Heather showed, I'm definitely a die hard coke fan.

Heather:

I I am now a die hard coke fan. I used to be a Pepsi fan, but around like the mid-2000s, they changed the recipe somehow. And I of Pepsi? Yeah. Oh. I don't know what they did, but it was probably like 10 or so years ago, 12 years ago, somewhere around there, they changed something about the Pepsi, and I just I don't like it anymore. So I am now a coker. I am a poker person. Um, but I prefer Coke Zero.

Zia:

Oh, yes, but I do you do.

Heather:

I I prefer the Coke Zero. I have some health issues, yeah. So I don't know. But our our health issues actually do not complement each other.

Zia:

No, they do not. They really don't. They don't.

Heather:

We let we make them, but they really don't complement each other. And maybe one day down the road we'll get into some of our health issues.

Zia:

Yes. And we could help a few people with the right. Right, that's what I'm saying.

Heather:

We could probably we could probably give some advice on some of that and since we cover such an array. I mean, it's not like I just have, you know, right eye problems. I have the list, you know. You guys can't see, but I'm sitting here counting off on my fingers.

Zia:

Yeah, like we have more specialist doctors than well, we have probably we we have specialist doctors than we yeah for every part of my body, right? For every part of our body.

Heather:

So it's doctor the doctor, me too. So if I ever need a doctor, I just type in DR and then all of them pull up and I find which one I want.

Zia:

Yeah, I do it that way. Yeah, it's just easier. Yep. So yeah, we'll have to go through that one day. So yeah.

Heather:

Yeah, one day we'll add that to a future, a future one. Um, so do you have it pulled up or do you want me to keep going?

Zia:

No, go keep going. I don't I just couldn't find it. Yep.

Heather:

All right, don't worry about it. Yeah, it's the new one we've made, so don't worry about it. So, tree down December, or do you wait till January?

Zia:

Uh I'd take it down today, but um, we had to cancel Christmas at our house.

Heather:

Yeah.

Zia:

So um I have to get on that in a few minutes. Yeah, uh I have to leave it up this year until I see my other little peoples. And um, usually it's down before my birthday, though, because I just don't like it before my January birthday. Yeah.

Heather:

No, that's a must. That's a must. You're correct. Um, I always take my tree down. When I was growing up, we always took it down on New Year's Day.

Zia:

Okay.

Heather:

Um, but then when I had Eliza, I decided to leave it up through her going back to school, which is typically, which is typically, you know, cut a day or two after. So it would always be that weekend. Yeah. So it it falls on Epiphany if you're religious, but it's not Epiphany. I'm not taking it down on Epiphany for Epiphany. I'm taking it down because that was the weekend. Um but generally generally I do I do early January. Early, early January.

Zia:

Okay. Not bad.

Heather:

No, no, it's okay. We we we're good with that. Um all right, so the next one is a two-parter. It's do you warm up your car in the winter or do you just get in it and drive and let it warm up while you're moving?

Zia:

Um I normally just get in the car and drive because mine's in the garage.

Heather:

Okay. I'm on I don't have a garage, so I let mine warm up. I have a remote start for mine too.

Zia:

Yep.

Heather:

So I'll go out and just, you know, click, click, and start it and let it warm up.

Zia:

Actually, I don't have a remote start on my car. Yeah, but Alex Alex made me laugh actually. Funny story about the starting up the car and getting the car in the garage. Um, my car went in the shop last week, and I had to take his car to school to work. And um I said, Alex, move your car in the garage. And he was like, Oh my god, it's like Air Force One. Wherever the president goes, that car gets this royal treatment. And I went hysterical.

Heather:

I was like, I love that.

Zia:

That's pretty good. He's like, Oh my god, I love that for you. My my car is Air Force One right now. This is amazing, he goes.

Heather:

I love that for you.

Zia:

Yep.

Heather:

So I put out a declaration here that because I moved to New Hampshire, um, we're not in our permanent home. We're we're renting a place right now. But um, when we get our permanent home, I either A have the garage or B getting a carport. Yes, yes. Because I I uh that was one of my one of my declarations when we moved. So with the winter talking of the car, do you put your wipers up if when you're at work? Because obviously you're in a garage. Absolutely. Do you put your wipers up if there's a storm coming, or do you leave them down if there's a storm coming?

Zia:

Um I'm put them up. Jersey has taught me to put them up. Um, I just did it last week because we had that ice storm was supposed to be coming. And I, you know, I think me and one other person were in the parking lot with our things up. You know, they might have Jersey influence or back.

Heather:

I was gonna say that Lady the person I know who has the Jersey influence that have them up. Yep.

Zia:

Yep, and um and it could be an 80s thing because a lot of us used to do that in the 80s because we didn't want to because the wipers were crap back then.

Heather:

Yep. So I go both ways. I go both ways.

Zia:

Ooh. I love that. Love that for you, Heather.

Heather:

I don't know if that was proper or not. Anyway, I think that's why we have the E next to our name on the podcast. Because we have we have very poor self-control sometimes.

Zia:

Well, sometimes we think like 12-year-old boys, you know.

Heather:

12-year-old boys, yeah. Right. Um, no, so I I do I do it both ways. If I'm out and about or if I'm at work, I will definitely put them up because um Oh, yeah. Because, you know, if or if I'm at work, I should say, I'll put them up because when I when it's the end of the day, I want to go home. I don't want to sit there and try to clear my cough. Absolutely. But here, but here in the driveway, I've been leaving them down because we have um we are one of our neighbors is we hired him to come and remove the snow for us for every snowstorm. And um when we hear him coming, because we our driveway is so long, I just start my car, and by the time he's at where we are, my windshield is clear and I can move them. Um so I don't I don't really put them up in the driveway. Yeah, but if I'm at work or if I'm if it's actively snowing and I'm running into, you know, the grocery store where I know I'm gonna be 20 or 30 minutes, I'll throw them up so that I don't have to worry about them freezing. Um so I do I do kind of do it both. Um yeah, so that's funny.

Zia:

Yeah, that's that is funny.

Heather:

So there you go, Eliza. That was our hot takes. Yeah, um, but in our our version of hot takes, because absolutely that's the way we do it. Yeah, and we have 30 seconds left before the timer goes off because we're trying to keep these at 30 minutes. Yeah, so quick Christmas updates. Yeah. Wanna hook yours up? Sure, I was sick.

Zia:

Um, like I said, we had to cancel Christmas Eve. Um but the kids were supposed to come. I got totally sick. I had high fever, um, so bad I was in bed for like my ring that I have, it says I was sleeping for 24 hours, and I I I Michael said, I don't think you've done that in like over 10 years. Stayed in bed for 24 hours.

Heather:

So sometimes you have to.

Zia:

Yeah, so we had to cancel um Alex Alex had to cook the food so it didn't go bad. Um, he just did like a quick he cooked all the food that was left for me to cook, and uh thank God he can cook very good. Um so tough him well. Yep, so he he did that and um kind of saved the food and um yeah, but uh sick, you um we actually had a phenomenal day.

Heather:

Um Eliza came home or came here, she took a quick mini vacation with her college bestie. Yeah, um who list who is an advid listener, by the way. Shout out to Gandhi!

Zia:

Thank you, thank you.

Heather:

Um so uh they get back on Christmas Eve from and uh I picked Eliza up at the airport and she stayed here Christmas Eve, woke up Christmas morning, so we did a split Christmas, so we did Christmas dinner on Christmas Eve, okay, and then we did Christmas morning, Christmas morning, and then she left about two o'clock um to go back to New York. So she's back there now. Um but we got awesome stuff, we did everything. We're coming to New York this weekend, but it's only for the day to see my parents and Rich's oldest daughter, yeah, and um, or our oldest, I shouldn't say Rich's. Yeah, right. She's mine. She's mine. Yeah. She may not be mine, but she's mine. Yeah. Um, we're gonna see them and my parents, and then we're gonna be done, and then we'll talk about it again. But I am coming out to new new uh New York, so we'll be able to you and I can see each other. Yeah. Um, but yeah, so it was a great Christmas.

Zia:

So um I mean Margie and uh Leon uh stopped by and um they you know we gave we Alex was the go-between. He gave presents to them and they gave our presents to us. Um, but yeah, that that was all we saw. And then uh Zach did a FaceTime with us. Oh, nice.

Heather:

So you got to see the babies.

Zia:

Uh no, they were sleeping. Um, okay. Yeah, Zach dropped the stuff off. Um, you know, uh the babies get very excited, you know, when they say, you know, you know how they get it in their head, they want to do things, and then it didn't happen. So just like to calm everything down, he just dropped the stuff off, and then we talked to him and Michaela, so yeah.

Heather:

Okay, yeah, that makes sense. There's still very little, so they don't understand.

Zia:

It's like, you know, tell them one thing and it just keeps you know in their head. Go, go, go.

Heather:

They're baby babies, so that makes sense.

Zia:

Heather:

I love that for you. Yes, you got a game for Christmas. Yeah, you got a you got a new game.

Zia:

Yes, I got a new game from my friend Heather and Rich. Yeah.

Heather:

And I claim I claim with my whoop whoops today.

Zia:

I claim the Jersey Devil, and she just told me I can't claim any of them.

Heather:

You totally flattened that dream of yours. Oh my god. So the game is called Horrified, and it's it's a great game, but you have to rescue this town from cryptids. Yep. And there's three cryptids who run around the town, and why three of them would be together, I'm not quite sure, but it's one of our favorite games here, but um, but you you can't be that cryptid. You have to you have to vanquish the cryptid.

Zia:

Yep.

Heather:

So unfortunately, you're gonna have to vanquish the Jersey Devil.

Zia:

I know. I'm so upset. I'm so upset. Yeah, but there's like there's like ten cryptids in there, so I mean and and Margaret got us uh a game yesterday, um, Yellowstone. So I'm very excited to play that. Yeah, yeah. It's got like the bunker, it's got the farm, it's it's so it goes this way the board. It's like yeah, it's horizontal the board, it's very cool.

Heather:

We got we got the game um stupid people, which is where you have to decide if how somebody died was a Darwin award or not.

Zia:

Let me know about that one.

Heather:

Oh, I I may bring this game when I come back to New York because it it looks like it's gonna be a lot of fun. Yes, but we are now over our time. Yes, one of the advantages of DJ Slink talking to you and you and him having your funny email conversation is he gave us permission to use the song. So we are gonna play the song for you in part of our outro. It's only a minute and a half, it's fabulous, it is funny. But we were re-recorded our intro with the music and the outro with the music. Absolutely. So I guess we say our generic goodbye and then our official goodbye will be recorded. So we will see you all next week. Yes, goodbye. Bye.
