Welcome back, Hoops and Glossers! Melis here, and I’m coming in hot as we roll into the first week of December — Happy Holidays! This week, we’re embracing the chaos of the season and letting go of perfection because, honestly, who has time for that? If you’re drowning in holiday madness, still have pumpkins on your porch, or haven’t even thought about a tree yet, welcome to the club. We’re in this together!

Here’s what you can expect in this hilariously relatable holiday episode:

What We’re Chatting About:

• Why Thanksgiving Was So Late This Year (Seriously, someone answer me. My entire holiday timeline is shot.)
• Christmas Cards? Not Happening. But why do I feel guilty? Plus, my life hack for saving the ones I do get.
• Elf on the Shelf Survival Tips Spoiler: Fighting kids = a stationary elf. And let’s talk about Snoop on the Stoop—game changer!
• The Perfect Family Holiday? It’s a Lie. Real-life stories of pre-photo chaos and near engagement-breakup moments.
• The Frat Party Kitchen Effect How the mess of having everyone home somehow feels magical — after it’s gone.
• Pressure for Perfect Gifts Stay on the list, parents. Creativity isn’t always appreciated.
