What would the holidays be without crazy holiday stories on Armchair Anonymous?
People got them.
They got them. They're going to keep coming. These are great. Hopefully they'll get you in the mood. Let me just quickly glance and make sure no animals have died prematurely. No, that's fine. Yeah, I think we're good here.
We're good.
Yeah. Going to the holiday strong with crazy holiday stories. We are supported by Audible. Audible's best of 2024 picks are here. Audible's curated list in every category is the best way to hear 2024's best in audio entertainment. Like a stunning new full cast production of George Orwell's 1984. This is the one I am most excited to indulge myself with.
I'm so excited to listen to James, which is a new title by Percival Everett that is very, very hot right now.
Well, there's so many good ones on the list.
We love Audible. This is how you go to bed.
I love Audible. I swear by Audible. I can't wait to listen to the Orwell 1984 off this list. I'm also doing Fleas by autobiography right now, which I'm obsessed with. I can't get enough Audible in my life every night. Go to audible.com slash DAX and discover all the year's best waiting for you. That's audible.com slash DAX. Okay, this is great because people may remember a while back, you and I have debated which is better, acetaminophen or ibuprofen. We sure have. So for me, particularly headaches, I got to go Tylenol.
Yep.
But I do like Motrin for muscle pain.
I like Motrin.
Yeah, you won't even play.
I play.
What about for headaches though?
I mean, I'm Motrin.
You're team Motrin.
I'm just team Motrin. Stop trying to make me who I'm not.
The gods have intervened and we have a perfect solution. Motrin and Tylenol have finally settled the great debate by teaming up and introducing Motrin dual action with Tylenol.
They did this for us to save our relationship.
I think they may have. Why just use one when you can have both? The pain-targeting strength of Motrin united with the pain-blocking power of Tylenol. Ibuprofen is the active ingredient in Motrin, and acetaminophen is the active ingredient in Tylenol. Motrin plus Tylenol brands provide over 100 years of combined pain relief experience in one product. Whatever your needs, Tylenol and Motrin are here to help. Fast-acting, long-lasting. Buy Tylenol, Motrin, and Motrin Dual Action with Tylenol on Amazon or at a store near you. Use product only as directed.
Hi.
Hi, Tracy. Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you both as well. Well, thanks for taking my story. When you guys started Armchair Anonymous, I was like, man, I got a story.
Oh, I'm so excited.
So this is a Christmas story that happened about 20 years ago on Christmas Eve.
Okay, 2004.
Yeah, so our children at the time, Daniel, he would have been about 13 and Abby would have been about 8 years.
Hold on a second. You do not look nearly old enough to have had a 13-year-old in 2004.
I will be 56 tomorrow. Nice! Also, happy birthday. Thank you.
Also, you're looking very foxy.
Yeah, you're aging very gracefully.
I'm having about 100 hot flashes now because I'm a bit nervous. Okay, that's all right. As the mom, the head shopper, my goal every Christmas when the kids were younger was to really have a great day. And it's not just about gifts, but a lot of it is about the gifts.
They never hurt. It's a big deal.
Yeah. And it's not about the quantity. It's just about making sure that they're getting what they put on their Santa list. So I'm in sales and at Christmas time, I'm super busy. So I always try to get everything done before we get into December. And I think it was like December 3rd. I hauled everything out and was going through everything. And we have to have the same amount per kid.
