Wednesday September 28th 2022: You’re The Favorite; Wrong Answers Only; Producer Jon’s Missing Car

A recent study says that the average person makes at least 4 major mistakes in their lifetime.  Anna decided to take a look back at the major missteps she’s made over the years. (:30)

Is it possible to have a social media platform that isn’t slightly detrimental to your mental health?  Anna thinks she’s found one and she immediately started an account!  (3:52)

Keeping your laptop clean doesn’t need to be a daily occurrence, but if you let the screen get completely filthy, that’s all I need to know about you! (7:33)

Did you have a favorite aunt or uncle growing up?  What did they do to become your favorite?  Anna goes to great lengths to make sure she is the favorite aunt to all her nieces and nephews! (10:42)

Are you up to date on this week’s biggest news stories?  Anna and Raven will get you caught up on what’s trending, including the workplace romance that has caused major drama on a successful TV show! (18:21)

Wrong answers only!  If you saw a toothbrush lying in the dirt in a parking lot, how do you think it ended up there? (22:19)

Producer Jon got his car stolen over the weekend, but yesterday it was found!  And the most unlikely person imaginable was driving it… (29:11)

Blake’s parents are moving to their town to be closer to their grandchildren. Blake’s wife, Sandy, is uncomfortable with them moving so close. She likes having some distance between her and her in-laws and thinks it would be fine if they were moving a few towns over, but not to their same small town! Can you tell your in-laws where you want them to live? She says setting boundaries and asking that they live 20-30 minutes away isn’t rude, it’s honest. (35:52)

Eleni thinks she’s got what it takes to beat Raven in pop culture trivia! Can she succeed and win the $100 jackpot? (44:14)

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: A very creative and kinda spooky way to get blood donations

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: A very creative and kinda spooky way to get blood donations

It’s always a challenge when you do a blood drive to get people to come donate. So usually you have to come up with some sort of incentive or catch to get people to show up. But this museum in Germany is has gone above and beyond with their idea and I’m kinda into it.

They are planning a big Dracula art exhibit where they will also be holding a blood drive (get it?! Dracula, blood, yeah you get it). They have partnered with the Red Cross to take the donations so don’t worry it won’t just be some pale guy with fangs taking your blood.

It’s an unspoken rule of public transportation that you are supposed to sit as far away from other passengers as possible, and if you don’t respect that rule that’s all I need to know about you! (6:32)

Raven loves all things Outer Space, which Anna has always found both nerdy and amusing.  Until she started watching the latest NASA livestream and became fascinated! (10:28)
