I want Zach on the pod so that Becky can air out her grievances 🤣🤣

[@Alice-nt4qr]

The most underrated duo

[@abcdaniellelise]

Learning Zach grew up with a lot of Bob Marley is the most unsurprising thing I’ve heard lol

[@GB-bh1kh]

i just want to say i’ve always really appreciated how vocal you guys were/are about covid and vaccinations. your compassion for others is a beautiful bright spot in the bleakness of the internet. thank you!!

[@he.said.teenjiejer]

it’s so awesome

[@morganmiller8010]

I so agree. Their outro makes me so happy every time - these are definitely my people. Lol.

[@Binkx1982]

Unfortunately, most jobs in America want you to stay home when you are sick but won't give you the time to stay home without the threat of being fired.

[@17dragonflies]

To the write-in about the homemade quilt: if your guy has a computer set up, maybe he could hang the blanket on the wall like a display! Or keep it draped over the computer chair

[@user_unav]

Saw a quote online “be kind to your mum, it’s her first time living too” broke me

[@he.said.teenjiejer]

i love hearing people talk openly about covid and getting the vaccine. i’m getting the newest one soon and i can’t wait tbh. i started masking again about a year ago because it just felt like we all stopped a little prematurely. eventually once i personally feel safe to i’ll stop, but i’ll definitely still be masking when i’m sick or when i’m around someone who is, and DEFINITELY when going into a hospital. i honestly couldn’t even believe they lifted hospital mask mandates at all. feels like we all should’ve been masking in hospitals just always.

[@victreebel170]

Yeah, I think it's insane in hospitals of all places, that people don't seem to care anymore. I'll mask up in any medical facility or crowded store. I mean, what's the downside?

[@S_J_banana]

But most people should be vaccinate by now so the risks are lower, at least where I’m from that’s what we were told.

[@morganmiller8010]

​@@S_J_banana Sure but people think masking up is just done period. We should still be masking when we feel under the weather and what not. People are just like "pandemic done - masks no longer ever needed".

[@kellyneary4]

Zach growing up with a lot of bob marley music makes SO much sense 😂

[@vennyg9855]

Escalator etiquette: Single file to the right if you are going to stand so that people in a rush can move past you on the left. I miss my train a lot because of people standing on the escalator.

[@Scooberdo]

This is an unspoken rule in DC 😂

[@victoriairenematthews5363]

The tshirt quilt should be folded at the foot of the bed for if and when you get cold

[@AvoryFaucette]

It's so surreal sometimes hearing about how others' COVID experiences are, since we're still fully masked and locked down in our little disabled household 😭but I'm really glad that Becky's experience was so easy! Despite vaccine the one time I got COVID it was severe breathing issues for a month, couldn't leave my apartment for three, and it's been a year and a half of major heart and lung symptoms, ughhh. And yet, never had loss of taste or smell! Bodies are weird. 😂 Relieved that I finally am able to see a cardiologist in a couple weeks, got an inhaler that actually works last month, and my partner bought me an adjustable bed so I can lie down without lung pain, so things seem to be turning around, knock on wood. ❤

[@mckenzie1539]

Use the solid duvet as the main blanket, and fold the quilt on the end.

[@anniejay3307]

my husband and I use separate blankets. We don't like sheets outside of the fitted sheets. Just fold the blankets up on our sides and it works. No one goes in our room anyway. Do they have a gaming room or office or something? He could hang it on the wall as decoration for a gaming room with the mother-in-law, its not good for your kids to see that you are allowing yourself to be treated poorly by family. If she cannot respect you as the mother of her grandchildren and the wife to her son, then I wouldn't allow any contact until she figures it out.

[@sro1431]

My favorite way to respond to people is “Did you mean to say that out loud?”

[@zoejohnson7596]

I need so much more of Percy Jackson than what we got. Seeing the 8th episode as the season finale PISSED ME OFF BEYOND BELIEF 😭😭

[@he.said.teenjiejer]

there will be a season two but i really hope it’ll be longer

[@HayleySmithPhotography]

My MIL is the same way as the woman who emailed in. It’s so bad to the point where we have a message thread without her just to tell each other about the small stuff that the MIL blows out of proportion and makes dramatic over nothing

[@itsJennBkbye]

Two separate blankets on the bed was a game changer for my husband and I! An easy problem solver 😊

[@princessDiana324]

My husband and my parents all had Covid and I never caught it I tested like crazy and totally expected to get it. I never did. I got my most recent vax right after all this. They can’t get their next shot until next month after having it

[@gamesgames3318]

During the height of covid infections where i live, vaccines definitely helped prevent more severe conditions like fever or losing taste and smell. I had a really bad sore throat only and didnt know it was covid and not the flu

[@abbylynne9798]

42:00 I know not everyone is gonna be comfortable doing this, but when men, especially on planes, manspread I get big back at them. Not aggressively shoving, but I leave my elbow or my leg until they get the message

[@FangToh]

There was a guy that clearly was coupled up with the lady beside my seat and he took it without asking me and clearly boarded before our group was called. And my seat was wayyyyyy behind his seat so I had to say sorry to A TON of people because I had to backtrack to get this his seat when people were boarding. Had he waited until we were in the air and asked I have felt better about it. I was just so stunned and they were already cuddling and holding hands that I felt bad but looking back I should have said "no, get out of my seat" especially since they didn't even try to find out who was seating next to her to ask for a switch before boarding ...

[@jadebroadhurst4697]

Use the quilt as the sofa cuddle blanket

[@graciehadlich]

I am also from the Midwest and I also have a quilt of theatre shows I’ve been in, camps I went to, choir events, musicals I’ve seen, sports I’ve been in. And I would probably fold it up and box it up. As much as I love it and am proud of it, I wouldn’t want to force my partner to sleep in it

[@Meldog1851]

For “kids music” barenaked ladies “Snacktime” album and Caspar Babypants were lifesavers 😂

[@hallelumaybe]

Need Maggie’s reaction to the curse finale. Like a one word reaction to not spoil it tho😂

[@FlagCutie]

I love that Auntie Maggie is the same as me with my perfect niece 😂. O have a whole album of her photos and videos for when i don't see her ❤

[@allison_jbs]

Yes!! Southwest is a lovely airline!! I love their staff so very much too!!!

[@stephaniecardona9175]

I’m about 20ish minutes in and I don’t hear Rainie. Is this a new thing? While I love Becky and Maggie I like what Rainie brings to the show.

[@ttisol]

I've also noticed this, and in the episode where it was just Becky and Matt. Didn't hear a peep from Rainie 😕

[@stephaniecardona9175]

@@ttisol yes. I went back and Fast forwarded the last few episodes and she wasn’t interacting in those either. 🫤 I thought maybe she was sick but she answered in this episode on loving a show. And that was literally it.

[@stellagasaparro9912]

Same! Missed Rainie in this one and hope she’ll be in episodes again, if she wants to of course ❤ it’s prob hard to juggle producing a show and interacting

[@mannybanda7702]

Love watching/listening while getting ready for the gym 💙

[@Sarah-cs3id]

Me too! I’m getting ready for class 😊

[@julinelson1775]

That Delta comfort issue is a scam. People book 1 expensive and and then 1 cheap and then try to con someone to give up their expensive seat. Upgrading up to comfort class can be hundreds per segment.

[@michellouisey]

i wish rainie spoke more, i love hearing her POV in these episodes

[@katlynngriffin7931]

The most annoying plane seat situation I've dealt with since COVID was me in a mask and they with no mask kept taking more and more of my space every single time I moved over a bit more because they were TOUCHING me

[@LaurenWoodrow-Kelly]

I'm in NZ, we have subsidised COVID tests through our GP's if needed, and test each time feel a tad under the weather/cold symptoms. Lot of people here still mask up, and employer's are great with work-from-home if you're testing positive. I think a lack of these things globally plays a factor into why we're still dealing with SARS-CoV to the global extent we are; totally agree with Maggie, mask up if in doubt, people! 💟

[@SoftBakedPretzel]

@ 16:45 - it sounds like maggie says "shit with us"

[@Gracewodag]

25:30 this this this haha I have OCD and I’m the messiest sister and struggling with cleaning regularly. None of us are meticulous in the same way 26:15 this would also bother me 😂

[@megd5498]

We fly United. I have a United credit card and I get two bags free through my card. We also fly free (first 25 rows) most of the time through status and the points we get from the card. Southwest doesn't do many direct flights and I've become spoiled from United's purchase seat in advance setup versus Southwest free for all 24-hour check in. I also don't like how crunched Southwest's line up to board process is. I did love Southwest's companion pass credit card, but the no direct flight issue became the breakpoint for us.

[@DashValkyrie]

omg Deadloch! I love that show, and am glad it's seeing success outside of Australia. The main actress recently won an award for it!

[@megd5498]

It was so good! It did take a couple episodes to really hit its stride but so hilarious!

[@SergioGonzalez-od7rx]

I would like to request a "Becky drags Zach's wrong opinions w/Zach" epsiode.

[@DizzyedUpGirl]

3:33 Another first wave here. And I mean like, before it was being talked about HERE. Back when it was an "over there" disease. My sister's company shared a building with an optometrist. The optometrist had a patient who had just came back from the region. Then my sister's company had a potluck with the doctor. Then I went over a few days after Xmas. It was January 2020, and I had felt bad for a few days and then one day..... BOOM. I slept for 20 hours (not in a row, but 20 out of 24 hours). It was horrendous. I can't really remember those 3 days.

[@silvercookies]

The Southwest crew are great.

[@colefiler]

Southwest girlie 'til I die! Becky is spitting facts right now.

[@Maguire708Julie]

Love you all!

[@EmmaHawkins94]

I'm in the UK and got my 2 vaccines, and then last year I caught Covid for the first time since Covid started. I don't know how, considering my husband had it twice before me and so did my 1 yr old daughter (at the time), and I was the one going out to do the shopping, taking the kids to places (when not in lockdown etc, all safely done with masks when needed ). It took me a few weeks to feel like my lungs were working at full capacity again but other than that and some extra tiredness I was ok. We'd just had a rather nasty strain of Covid as well then so I'm glad I was vaccinated at the time as I dread to think how it could have affected me since my immune system took a hit 2 Christmasses ago and triggered all my hypermobility, plus the sleep issue I'm still dealing with (possible ME/CFS)

[@rosadeplata1752]

I have never clicked like on a podcast. I did on this one because of Becky's love for SW. ❤

[@user_unav]

I loved deadlock As an Aussie it’s pretty much accurate lols

[@Zoomieszad]

From the river to the sea 🍉

[@ec2335]

So glad to hear you talking about deadloch!

[@hiVanderLinden]

DEADLOCH YESSSSSS

[@ktrucke3]

If you decide to try kid music I highly recommend Trout Fishing in America. Their songs appeal to adults and they use a variety of styles such as blues and rock.

[@ambientmusicstudymusic5718]

ngl, the lack of smell and taste with covid sounds similar to the bland senses during a depressive episode 😬

[@spc2785]

I’m on day 6 of Covid 😢 Think I got it at the gym.

[@user_unav]

50:30 my sister and I were at a festival together a few years ago. Late in the night probably the last set on we’re chilling and sharing a bottle of water and this lady next to us was non stop asking us for our water bottle, we kept saying no, germs etc and there was bubblers and places you could buy / refill bottles of water. She and her partner were ready to start a fight over a water bottle. My sister and I were like hard no, go and your own water. Probs not super weird but a intense situation lols

[@karenesq419]

we missed you Becky

[@earendil0888]

Lol I liked the Percy Jackson movies too ❤

[@miratowns7905]

I need bird and Henny updates!!! ❤❤❤

[@jenniferschuler9065]

Maggie, the person who sits in the middle gets BOTH arm rests. You want the armrest, book a middle seat. Flight attendants will take your side.

[@jessh8972]

Flying in the US seems like absolute madness

[@emilytrudel91]

And also my sister only flys on southwest why does Zach hate them?

[@emilyf4178]

Southwest is superior hands down

[@DizzyedUpGirl]

8:08 Seriously? They didn't even fake it? Run some water over your hands? I saw a lady do that once in public. But at least she pretended!

[@maritzai0322]

At this point with that MIL she's going to be bitter betty and feel like her daughter in law is just asking out of pitty. Poor girl is at a lose lose situation now. That said I'm on her side. It's kind of always a thing that the wife is going to be closer to her own parents when grandbabies happen. MIL is just going to have to deal with it.

[@mollywillo]

I'm glad people enjoyed Percy Jackson, I was really disappointed with the pacing and tone. I found myself bored during what should have been exciting action sequences. And no interesting chemistry/relationship between the characters, no banter? It didn't feel at all like the books, which is fine, but it didn't feel like anything much. But maybe if you haven't read the book in a while, I could see it being a bit more enjoyable.

[@emilytrudel91]

Women should of brought her own chair SMH

[@hopemjacquet]

I love Becky and Maggie, but I can't listen to yall talk about shows

[@BrendanSullivan]

0:37 Coco is slang for cocaine, watch yourself

[@Sarah-cs3id]

I think she meant to say “co-vo” but I totally get what you mean!

[@kstrongtree22]

Slang can change or mean different things as well. You can tell what they're talking about immediately. She clearly doesn't know what you've referenced and I've never heard that term for it either.

[@he.said.teenjiejer]

@@kstrongtree22agree, i’ve personally never heard it in a context where it meant that

[@jmason1770]

I thought of the movie Coco which definitely not that! What about Cocoa Puffs (cereal)?
