We are getting ready to plan some travel for the holidays and so we've started to look on Airbnb We love to stay at an Airbnb Because when you travel with children and your family it is nice to have a kitchen It's nice to have you all in one area Jenna I got a hot tip for you.
What is it? Do you know that you could make money offer your home while you're away on vacation?
Tell me more I will while you're away your home could be an Airbnb.
Oh really? Yeah think about someone who's frequently traveling you know?
Yeah while they're away their home is making them money.
That's pretty sweet.
I know that's very shrewd farms of them.
Although Dwight doesn't leave. That's true and if he did leave you'd be stuck with Moe's.
Yes. Well it sounds like Airbnb is a really practical way to earn some extra money.
If you've stayed at an Airbnb wouldn't be cool to give that experience to others, your home might be worth more than you think.

Hi everyone, hi there.
Welcome to a little Friday chit chat.
We were not expecting to do a Friday chit chat today, but Angela as you and I were coming into the building we solved a major Friday chitchat mystery.
Well here's what happened you guys we arrived at the same time and we've got into the elevator there was one other lady in it she had hit floor number eight and Jenna like I look in our floor is not lit up so I'm like did you hit the button and she turns to me and goes no I hit floor number two and I said, I said, I want to see this man in the low chair.
And I said, he's probably not there.
It was probably like an anomaly, like what are the odds?
But we got off on the second floor and we turned and I did this because guess what?
Man in low chair was there.
But I was like, and is this the man and the low chair you were talking about?
Because this is not how I imagined it.
And I said, It was just tell me you guys.
Sam Cassie when Angela told the story, did you imagine that there was like a businessman doing business at his like business -y desk in a super low chair?
I think I pictured who ran Potter's town in, It's a Wonderful Life.
I don't know. The old man, the evil old man.
I just pictured him, but like two feet lower in his chair.
Okay, Cassie? I just think this building is full of like artists and weirdos that I think it could be anything.
Okay, thank you, you guys.
See, there's several interpretations.
I like this. And here's the thing, Jenna said, is that the same man?
And I said, no, it's not.
It's a new man in a low chair, but there's also a lady outside this time in a low chair in the hallway who looked right at me when I went, ah, like, also I, okay, go on, go on.
Now, that's as far as I got.
Listen, that day when I came in, I was in a rush.
You got off at the wrong floor, accidentally saw me in a low chair, got back on the elevator.
Exactly, I didn't take a lot of time to look.
Okay, well, it was just a waiting room for a dental office.
And the people were just in chairs and they weren't particularly low either.
Lower than you would expect though.
Were they though? These seemed like regular chairs.
I mean, they just seem like people sitting in chairs, waiting for their dental work.
If you've never seen a door open in this whole building, the whole time we've been here, and you get off the elevator thinking you're on your floor, and there's a door open, and a man in a little chair.
You keep saying little chair but it's a regular chair!
Here's the thing. The guy I saw, the original guy, was very tall.
So put him in that chair with his long legs.
Okay, fair enough. Yeah, anyway guys, it's a dentist office if you need to get your teeth cleaned.
There's one on the second floor, okay We have more news another update we won the Webby y 'all Yes, thank you so much for voting we won the 2025 people's voice award for best comedy podcast come on Thank you so much to everyone for voting, you know it felt so special to me.
We won when the show first came out.
And now to win again after all these years, we all worked so hard on the show.
And it I was so moved by it, I was really moved by it.
I sort of announced it to my family.
I was like, we want a webby.
And they were like, Oh my gosh, well, the thing I love about it is I think it's the coolest looking of the awards.
It's like this. It looks like a spring.
It's like a like a spiral.
I really It's very visually interesting.
I know I love it now we have to yeah I have another chitchat topic that I was excited to bring to the group.
Okay, I want to talk about a Skincare product that I'm really enthusiastic about Okay, yeah you have us it is inexpensive You can buy it at the drugstore and its aqua for okay I love aquaphor.
Yeah, aquaphor is great!
You said you love aquaphor Sam, tell me more.
I use it on all my tattoos afterwards.
Yeah. It's great. What does it do?
It's like a barrier, it's greasy, it's like Vaseline.
It's a petroleum jelly and it's great for sunburns.
Okay, that's where I think I've heard it.
Yes, and it holds moisture in and creates a barrier but I started using it when I was doing radiation And my doctor said I should slather myself in aquaphor and sleep in it She's like, it's hard to wear during the day cuz it's kind of greasy, but I was like amazing My daughter got a sunburn we threw some aquaphor on it.
I was like, hey radiation lady said this is the best thing for Burn, burn.
Yeah put it on her but then not to go too deep into my medical side effects But at one point I got this really bad rash Remember lady all over my neck all over your neck and all over kind of up encroaching on my face, and the dermatologist said, put some Aquaphor on it.
So I started slathering my face and chest and neck and Aquaphor, and then when the rash went away, I got gifted like a fancy schmancy face cream, and guess what happened?
Rache, thank you, Cassie, I broke out into a rash again.
And then I started using the Aquaphor again, And then blah, blah, blah.
I had to have my makeup professionally done.
And the makeup artist was like, what skincare do you use?
Your skin is luscious.
Your skin is beautiful.
It's never been this beautiful.
And she's known me for years.
And I said, aqua four.
So there it is, I'm putting it out in the world.
You don't need fancy shmancy.
Don't pass aqua four up.
Don't, sleep in the aqua four.
Now with the sleeping, do you get in like an aqua for sleeping bag?
No, so Lee doesn't get covered in grease?
No, I put it on like about an hour before I go to bed.
So it's not as like potent.
Like, I love the visual though, because it's like, you know, like how your grandma used to sleep in gloves with I love the idea that you have a special sleeping sack, for when you are - So soft. Now, listen, I'm not a skin expert, believe it or not.
You're not? I'm not.
What? I'm also not a dermatologist. I thought that was the extra degree you did.
No. I never finished it.
Oh, okay. Not an anesthetitian, but...
So there could be a thing where like I run dry, in general.
My skin runs dry. It's always parched.
I drink a ton of water.
My skin is always so thirsty.
So if you have an oily skin or you're prone to breakouts, maybe don't take my aqua for advice or ask a professional, but I really love it.
It's probably good in dry climates too.
Like we live in a dry climate.
We do. That's a good point.
Yeah. Yeah. This might be a whole different conversation if you lived in Scotland.
Or Florida. Florida is very moist. muggy right yeah yeah well I have a hot travel tip for everybody yeah ready yeah should you find yourself in the Phoenix Airport in the southwest terminal okay there's a display of all of these handmade quilts from people from all over and they all have a really unique story and I just had a layover there and i just walked around taking pictures of quilts and reading the little plaques and it's so beautiful.
I thought, how wonderful, how nice.
You guys looking at me kind of blank.
It's no, it's really sweet.
I was waiting for the point of the story to kick in.
It's Sam, it's an appreciation of art at the Southwest terminal in Phoenix.
Yeah, my thought was this is just very on brand for Angela.
If I was to run into you in the wild, it would be looking at quilts.
Well, I took all the pictures.
I took pictures of all of them.
And yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if you missed your following three, ten, ten nights.
You know, the funny thing is there was a family like, clearly, they're on a big family trip.
I imagined it was like a big family reunion or for a wedding.
There was multiple generations of age and they were taking a huge group photo like, we're on our way!
But they were right in front of one of the clothes that I wanted to take a picture of.
So I sort of scooched behind them to get my picture and then I saw them, they looked over their shoulder like this lady we're clearly trying to take a group picture and she's like behind us reading the quilt plaque and I turn I was like oh I'm sorry I'm sorry but anyway there you go little hot tip for you I love that hot tip if you were a travel blogger that would be a very unique travel tip thank you there are a lot of airports that have lovely display art features and that really helped pass the time.
And then there's the Denver airport, which is like conspiracy town.
What's happening at the Denver airport?
I mean, I'm in that airport all the time.
Supposedly built by a bunch of freemasons, if I'm telling the story right, and it's supposedly there's, like, a bunch of hidden messages written all over in it.
The artwork is really strange in there.
Yeah. And then their, outside of the airport, is like this horse statue. Yes.
To get it there is like such a long weird tragic story.
To get the horse statue, the big blue one?
Yeah and it's really scary.
It looks like a horse that's like well yeah scary.
Yeah, you know listeners want a Google Deep Dive it it's the Denver Airport it's just very strange.
I'm literally there all the time cuz Josh's family I'll have to look it up.
Should we go there and like mom detected that, and see what the hidden messages are.
We'll also need to visit Josh's family because that will have to make an extended stay.
That's fine. A quick Google search says the Denver international airport conspiracy theories revolve around the idea that the airport is somehow a hub for sinister activities, including secret government plans, new world order agendas, or even alien involvement.
Oh my goodness. You know what?
I've always thought of the Denver airport.
What? Now, this might go to my love of chocolate meringue pie, but we call it the pie airport because it looks like the top, it looks like chocolate meringue.
Oh. So that was my take on the Denver airport.
Wow. I've got to do some googling now.
I wonder if Josh's family's ever heard about this?
Maybe. It seems like it would have come up in conversation once over all these years.
I got stranded at the Denver Airport once with my two kids.
And I found everyone in the airport to be really nice for what it's worth.
I mean, I've had no issues.
While I'm intrigued.
Before we wrap up Friday chit chat, I do feel like we need to say happy birthday.
Today's Cassie's birthday.
Yes, happy birthday.
Happy birthday, Cassie.
Thank you, everyone.
We will have treats and fun later.
and I also wanna give a shout out to my parents who came in the studio and helped us open up and organize fan mail.
They helped us put up stuff.
Finally, my dad hung up our special plaque award thing from Spotify that we got for our 100 million Spotify downloads.
Yes, we didn't know how to hang it because it's a concrete wall, but your dad had all the tools and I walked in and he was on a ladder.
It was amazing. And then we also I finally got to hang up Sam's gift of us with Keanu.
Yes. So now that is above my desk.
But yeah, so we got a little decorating done.
And thank you to my folks for coming in.
Yeah. All right, well, do you guys have any additional chatty?
I'm good. You want to bet?
We good? Cassie, what are you doing for your birthday?
I'm playing pickup basketball with a bunch of my friends.
Yeah. So fun. And then right now the NBA is in playoffs and my partner and I are Clippers fans.
So they're playing tonight and we're going to root for them.
So fun. Yeah, just a lot of basketball and office ladies, which I can't complain.
Sam, you had your birthday one week ago.
I did, yeah. Which we celebrated.
Thank you, Beth. Did you end up going to that Italian restaurant that Lee used to be a waiter at?
Purgaletta, yes, I did.
On Rivers Avenue in California.
Yeah, I did. It's my favorite restaurant in Los Angeles.
It's so good. I've never been, I want to go.
It's great, I'll take you.
