The mamas are here to present to you a rare treat to all the beloved listeners: a jazz odyssey of an episode... a variety of banter and an exploration of topics. Please enjoy this delightfully long episode where Justine and Laura settle into their role as co-hosts and take the listeners on a journey.

We start off with complaining about the freezing rain and strategies on how to combat SAD (seasonal affective disorder for you non-Northerners). Justine details the differences between hog casings and collagen casings for the Sausage Talk segment, much to the existential horror of Laura (who we learn used to be a vegetarian!) .

The mamas discuss traveling with babies: How to handle the airplane ride, going through security and what on earth to bring. Where is Laura going to escape the winter? Gotta listen to find out!

Wrapping it up, we talk about our childhood (and early adulthood) gay crushes because after all... we are a gay podcast. No spoilers on who picked who, but a clue will be available in the link below!

Rae Spoon: "My Prairie Home" is a beautiful documentary set to the songs written and performed by Rae Spoon. Check it out to see beautiful shots of Alberta and enjoy some good prairie queer content: https://youtu.be/_6wsDCH-1GU?si=Gkba0OnmTvKrPDFK
