We’re diving into the strange and spooky culinary concoctions of the season—candy corn sausage, anyone? And don’t miss the buzz around the audacious pairing that has Ohioans in a tizzy: Skyline Chili meets Grater's Ice Cream. Plus, we take a heartfelt turn, pondering the strength of God's shoulders as we unload our frustrations and laughter on Him, whether it's praying for a quiet Zoom call or a donut miracle.

    Prayer that’s equal parts silly and sincere finds its way into this episode, offering a peek into the everyday hopes and hilarities we whisper to the heavens. From wishes for green lights on the road to tales of asking for divine intervention in grocery aisles, we explore the comfort of having a candid chat with God. Join us for a spirited conversation that encourages bringing all your requests to the table, no matter how whimsical they may be. It's a celebration of life's beautifully random prayers and the comfort of knowing God is always listening.

    Speaking of nostalgia, we stroll down memory lane with childhood prayers and the seemingly trivial facts that stick with us through the years—like video game cheat codes and forgotten family addresses. Dive into stories of past silliness and camaraderie with financial woes softened by humor, where dropping a $7 blueberry becomes a metaphor for life's little losses. We wrap up the episode with a collection of relatable tweets on inflation, offering some much-needed laughter amidst economic realities.
