Key Insights

Why do the hosts think Christmas cards might become a lost art?

They believe Gen Z might not continue sending Christmas cards because it requires being in a certain life phase, like having a family or owning a home, which younger generations may not prioritize. They see their generation as possibly the last to send physical cards.

What is the hosts' stance on splitting holidays with a significant other?

They believe that until a couple is engaged or married, each person should spend holidays with their own family. Once married or with a child, they think it's appropriate to alternate holidays between families or create joint traditions.

What is the hosts' advice for someone questioning whether to end a relationship?

If you're questioning whether the relationship is your happiest potential, it's time to call it quits. They emphasize that lifestyle differences are a significant factor and that staying in a relationship where you're not fully happy can prevent you from finding a better match.

What is the hosts' favorite New York City Christmas tradition?

Their favorite tradition is seeing the Christmas tree in person, which they describe as magical and breathtaking despite the crowds. They also mention avoiding Times Square during the holidays due to the chaos.

What is the hosts' recommendation for a binge-worthy show?

They recommend 'Sex Lives of College Girls' on HBO Max, produced by Mindy Kaling. It's about four diverse college freshmen who become close friends, and they describe it as funny and well-written.

What is the hosts' take on dirty laundry habits?

They admit to wearing leggings multiple times before washing them, especially if they haven't sweated. They attribute their habits to living in New York without easy access to laundry facilities, which made them more lax about washing clothes frequently.

What is the hosts' favorite Monster Energy drink flavor?

They both favor the Monster Energy Zero Ultra, also known as the White Monster, as their go-to flavor for its refreshing taste, especially during warm weather.

What is the hosts' holiday tradition for Christmas Day?

They typically watch 'A Christmas Story' and 'Christmas Vacation' on Christmas Eve, open presents on Christmas Day, and have a big family dinner. They also enjoy giving back by leaving small gifts for strangers.
