What would you do to start going to normal events again?  New York State just said that people can start going to weddings with up to 150 people, but they have to do THIS first.  Would you do it?

Would you spend 7 million dollars of your own money on a Super Bowl performance?  The Weeknd did, and it made Anna and Raven wonder what he spent it on!  Anna realized that the answer was right in front of us the whole time!  (2:59)

It’s nice to get together and eat a bunch of junk food with friends at the Super Bowl, but if you do THIS at a Super Bowl party, that’s all I need to know about you!  (6:20)

Is it healthy to work out when you’re pregnant?  Kelly Rowland was getting some nasty comments from internet trolls about working out in her third trimester, so Ann and Raven brought in an expert!  Dr. Diana Garretto is the director of OBG Ultrasound at Stony Brook Medicine, and she sheds some light on the do’s and don’ts of exercising during your pregnancy.  (9:21)

The pandemic has brought so many new (annoying) phrases into our common language, but have you ever heard the term “pangry”?  Anna and Raven talk about what makes them “pangry” in the podcast!  (12:57)

Getting a good nights sleep is one of the most healthy things you can do for yourself, but did you know that 2/3’s of people can’t go to sleep until they do THIS?  Find out what it is in the podcast!  (16:35)

Dogs and Cats are great, but do you have any out-of-the-ordinary pets?  Anna used to have a sweet little pet rabbit named Snowball, and you won’t BELIEVE what her family made her do with it!  (20:22)

It’s Ground Hog’s Day!  Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow, which means 6 more weeks of winter, but what Anna and Raven didn’t realize was that Phil has a serious side hustle going on too!  (27:56)

If someone was rude to you, would you say something?  Anna has been dealing with a rude employee at her local grocery store, and the way she handled it might surprise you!  (30:51)

Liz and Chris have a seven-year-old daughter and a five-year-old son. Liz still gives them a bath together every night. She says they enjoy it and have fun playing in the tub. Chris says they’re too old to still be bathing together. What do you think?  (37:40)

Taylor is a real whiz at pop culture trivia, but is she good enough to beat Raven and claim the $2000 prize?  (43:57)

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Reddit Users Pay It Forward With GameStop Profits

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Reddit Users Pay It Forward With GameStop Profits

Even if you don’t fully understand the stock market it’s safe to say the last week was pretty eventful in the finance world. All you really need to know for this story is that a bunch of people on Reddit who invested in GameStop stocks made a whole bunch of money.

Now a few of those people are using it for good! A guy in Texas used his profits to pay it forward and buy ten Nintendo Switches that he donated to a children’s hospital in Dallas.  Then in Minnesota another guy dropped off six of them at a children’s hospital near him.

At least there is some good to come out of all this stock talk.

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: How much snow can fall in 24 hours?

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: How much snow can fall in 24 hours?

With this blizzard raging outside I started to wonder how much snow can actually fall in a 24 hour period?

We can only go by past storm history so here is the most that’s ever fell, get ready it’s a lot.

Back in 1921 Silver Lake, Colorado had an April snow storm that dumped 6 feet of snow between 2:30pm April 14 and 2:30pm April 15th. that’s 75.8 inches!

I hope we don’t get anywhere near that today, but that’s the high mark.
