Kelly & Don cover a little bit of everything this week — starting with a viewer comment about Don’s “too much thigh”apology (yep, that happened) and how even the most mundane stuff gets politicized online. Then it’s a rapid-fire tour through:
- Savannah Bananas blowing up like the Harlem Globetrotters of baseball
- Wedding rings: symbolism vs. reality (and Don’s ring-in-the-paint story)
- Parenting a 13-year-old “bro” and teaching respect vs. “glazing”
- The viral Louvre “Fedora Man” (aka fedora aura)
- Feeling overwhelmed, the gov’t shutdown vibe, and midlife perspective
- Mariah Carey defrosting
- Penny “is it gone?” chat and why Gen Z “hates cash”
Jump to chapters ⏬ and tell us in the comments: wedding ring hard rule or who cares?
