Hey there, it's Nick.

And it's Leah.

Real quick thing before we get going.

Did you know that we have a new benefit on Patreon?

I did know.

Yes.

So if you want an ad-free version of our show, you of course can continue signing up for Wolf's Plus exclusively on Apple Podcasts.

But you can now get the same benefit when you join us on Patreon as a moon howler or higher.

A moon howler. I just want to be a moon howler. I am a moon howler. You are a moonhaller. Yes. Yes. You are the very definition. You're the model moonhauler. Boy, do I moon howl. Also, you're not only getting the ad-free version. You're also getting all of our Patreon content. Oh yeah. I mean, there's tons of bonus content, which you've never seen if you haven't joined us on Patreon. So please either join us on Wolves Plus through Apple Podcasts or join us on Patreon.

Come Moon Howl.

Hey, everybody. It's Nick Layton. And it's Leah Bonima.

And we had so many great questions from you all in the wilderness.

Ow!

That we've a bonus episode. So here we go. Our first question is, quote, as has been our annual tradition for the past 20 years, my husband's sister and her husband come for a large

holiday dinner at my home. Due to religious traditions and observance, I prepare all of the

food that will be served. In prior years, we have always done the following dance. My sister-in-law

asks if she can bring anything, and I always reply, no, thank you, just yourselves.

Then she insists again, and I say, oh, some fresh fruit would be lovely, thanks. This year,

she didn't start the dance, so I figured she would just be bringing the fruit again. No such

luck. This time, she arrived with a home-baked cake. Martha Stewart's flowerless chocolate

cake, if you're curious. When it came time for dessert, I accidentally, on purpose, did not

serve the cake because I know it did not meet my immediate family's religious expectations.
