Summary

Dear Pennies & Pallers,

The great Will Ferrell joins us this week to read your letters! 

In this week’s first letter, a high school senior asks what he can do to make his final year memorable - and invites us to his graduation party. Will shares some of his favorite high school memories - and explains how his son is carrying on the tradition of senior year hijinks.

In our second letter, a Pen Pal is uncomfortable with his wife’s continued use of spanking as a disciplinary method for their child, and asks if spanking is ever a reasonable punishment. He also asks about our showering order (soap first, then shampoo?). 

We also discuss: Will’s real-life work as a youth soccer coach, playing the spoons, kegs at the grad party, Will forming a Reptile Club in high school, Lloyd’s bank, Will’s new show “The Shrink Next Door” on Apple TV+, and more.

We wish you well, sincerely, Your Pen Pals Daniel Van Kirk & Rory Scovel
