About this listen

Kelly is fresh off her birthday trip to Vegas, complete with a Hell’s Kitchen dining experience and an interaction with fellow diners that’ll have you asking, what would you do? The fun continues with a theater faux pas so distracting it leaves the actors questioning their own performance. Plus, we tackle the ultimate travel etiquette debate: if someone asks you to save their seat at the airport, what do you do when you come back and someone else is sitting there?

Anthony shares his first-ever argument with ChatGPT (yes, over politics), Matthew gives a shoutout to a new listener who agrees Dad looks like Smokey Robinson, and Mom tells a completely unhinged story involving a four-year-old Anthony who was supposedly “sleeping” — a moment that explains far more than it should.

We also dive into a thoughtful discussion around weight, food noise, and the psychology of eating, sparked by conversations about Oprah and GLP-1 medications. We unpack the idea of “choices” versus biology, growth hormones, and how food systems and weight trends differ between the U.S. and the EU. Mom drops a food fact that absolutely blows Anthony’s mind — is he really the only one who didn’t know this?!

Finally, we reminisce about Dad’s many inventions, all lovingly named “The Tony,” each one destined (briefly) to make the family rich — and Dad himself makes a cameo to give his two cents. We wrap things up with a conversation about the different ways people make an impact, whether through teaching, mentoring, or simply showing up for others.

As always, it’s a mix of laughs, debates, nostalgia, and the kind of conversations that only happen around the family table.
