The conversation kicks off with some local highlights, including a look at Vida Taco and the $795 raised for Habitat for Humanity of the Chesapeake. From there, the gang dives into their personal holiday itineraries. Pete will be in sunny Florida, John shares his plans to spend Boxing Day at Kelsey’s Irish Pub in Ellicott City, while Megan recaps getting "cultured" at a candlelight concert at the Annapolis Waterfront Hotel.

The gang also covers a wide range of pop culture and local updates, including:

• A "So Cinema!!" moment and the mystery behind the "67" thing.
• Megan spilling the tea on the latest Diddy documentary.
• Vital local news regarding the Military Bowl, the Key Bridge, and the Chesapeake Bay Bridge.
• A recap of the Charter Title Open House and some expert real estate insight.

The gang wraps things up by wishing everyone a safe, happy holiday season and a very Merry Christmas. Thank you for an incredible first year!
