Thunderstorms and Tributes: Celebrating Life's Milestones and Savoring the Strangest Snacks

Send us a Text Message.

Remember how a thunderstorm can turn a family barbecue into an unforgettable adventure? That's precisely what happened during our Memorial Day Weekend! Mike and I share a slice of life as we discuss the joy of celebrating milestones like my grandson Corb's eighth birthday amidst the chaos of an impromptu thunderstorm. But the weekend wasn't just about cake and candles; we also took a moment to honor the sacrifices made by our servicemen and women, diving into the emotional significance behind the tradition of leaving coins on their headstones.

Life throws us curveballs, and sometimes our heroes don't catch them. We navigate the poignant reality of disillusionment when icons fall from grace and the dissonance of rekindling ties with a revered teacher whose beliefs have shifted from our own. These personal stories open a window into the importance of cherishing memories and the impacts of those who've touched our lives, while also stressing the vitality of respecting a range of perspectives in our ever-evolving society.

Finally, brace yourselves for a culinary roller coaster as we explore the wackiest snack flavors the food industry has dared to concoire. From cola-flavored chips that left us questioning the laws of snack physics to a "snickle" that defied all expectations (and maybe good sense), we leave no stone unturned, or should we say no flavor untasted, in our quest for the most outlandish eats. So, grab your forks (or maybe just your imagination) and join us for an episode packed with laughs, reflections, and a few questionable taste tests!
