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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
In this week’s episode, Alex Bennett and Jordyn Woodruff discuss spending the holidays with your significant other, whether Christmas cards are still a thing, and throwing up in a bush (lol). Later, they talk about holiday traditions, dirty laundry, and when it’s time to call it quits in your relationship...
