Laura and Brittany debate kids' school celebrations, fantasy coffins, Chelsea Handler's family rules, Usher's stage moment and a gastro text.
The hosts describe fantasy coffins as elaborate painted and sculpted coffins, a tradition adopted in Ghana, in which a person is buried in a shape representing what they love, such as a giant fish, a boat, a Coca-Cola bottle or a Nike shoe. People often design and pre-pay for them before they die.

She reposts it each vacation season.
Answered around 12:54In a comment she said reactions to her letter were mixed, but she no longer does huge family vacations because there were other people she could spoil who would appreciate it, so she brings someone who has never been to the place she is going.

Answered around 25:36A deli worker warned they were symptomatic of gastro after an outbreak at their other job.

“Like there has to be a point where you can allow your family to apologize, grow, show that they're different”
