Summary

Cuties alert! The Bayer siblings are thrilled to have their dear friend and absolute cutie Abby Elliott on the podcast today! Abby and Vanessa talk about their fun adventures at the SNL 50th Anniversary, from celebrity encounters to their red carpet go-to moves. And speaking of, Vanessa tells Abby how much better she is at looking cool on looking cool on a red carpet and at life in general? Plus they fill in Jonah on how spray tanning works and talk about the days of people going to tanning salons "to get a base" before tropical vacations. And they reminisce about the days we would spend hours and hours talking on our landline phones, to the point where we'd fall asleep while still technically on a call. And in a very amusing game of "YES OR NO-STALGIA", the trio discusses the return of Lisa Frank (yay!), Atari (okay!) and falling, not dropping, into the GAP (double yay?) You've gotta check out this incredible episode, kay?
