Episode 40: Getting to the Heart of Valentines Day

<p>We&apos;re getting close to that special time of year, and rather than posting this day-of, we thought we&apos;d give you all a week to internalize some lessons on Valentines Day and use them when enticing your beau next week. Listen to us bicker about how to best show your love to your SO (or friends and family in your life), the problem with single-day occurrences,  bad gift ideas, and which holidays (besides the day in question) are the sexiest.  Joel was deeply committed to the idea that Oktoberfest is sexier than July 4th; we&apos;ll let you decide. <br/><br/>Looking for a way to use leftover Valentines chocolate up? Stella Parks has a great<a href='https://www.seriouseats.com/easter-candy-cookies-recipe'> Chocolate Cookie Recipe</a> that you can throw all your miscellaneous chocolates in. <br/><br/>As always, our theme music is “Drop” by the artist Ketsa. If you like their music, you can find more of it <a href='https://ketsa.uk/'>here</a>.<br/><br/>We strongly urge our listeners to support the work of Planned Parenthood by donating <a href='https://www.plannedparenthood.org/planned-parenthood-arizona/donate'>here</a>.
