Well, it's New Year's Eve. We've done it again.

Headphones in. Headphones in. Your headphones should have been in for several hours already to prepare your ears.

Yeah, and like tape over your car play screen. So, you know.

I, when I sent the like calendar invite to Lowe and her publicist, as I've been calling this New Year's Milk and Eve, which I thought I'm sorry, it was very funny.

That's probably the episode title, let's be honest.

Obviously.

And Chris, Kristen was like, I can't put that in the fucking calendar.

And I was like, okay, fine.

But you better not be listening then.

New Year's Milk and Eve is funny.

There will be no kink shaming today.

I think it just said faded mates recording.

I was like, okay.

That sounds very innocent.

Everyone, that is the voice of one of our very favorites, Lauren Billings, one half of the Christina Lauren duo.

We are so excited to have you with us again.

You are a multi-timer here at Fatimates.

And I should just say also, you are a multi-timer four episodes where we are like we want to talk about something slightly

dirty let's bring low in it's a sign of our love and respect honestly that is like the biggest

compliment for me and the funniest thing was that I know you would not ask Christina to do that

because she would be like no thanks but like for me for me, I'm like, let's do it.

I'm all in. And so I was talking to her this morning after I dropped off my daughter at school. And I was like, you know, I have that faded mates recording today. And she was like, you do? And I was like, oh, I guess I never told you that I've been reading these insane books for the last few days. she's like, have fun.
