TAC Sideshow 4: Tech Gremlins and Excessive Lip Balm
Despite the tech gremlins turning off AP’s camera, we managed to gab for almost an hour (don’t worry a lot was cut). Megan had to sit this one out, but Amy and AP had fun.
We tackled the very important question how many lip balms is too many lip balms? Please help us get to the bottom of this on our socials. Amy reminisced about Lip Smackers from the 1970s.
We spent a LOT of time talking about formatting documents for neuro-spicy brains. Spreadsheets might have come up. Quite a bit was cut from this discussion, but what was left in was done so in case it helps someone else not to feel alone. Brains are indeed weird. Heck, maybe this can be your sleep story this week.
AP shared a great cocktail hack. Let us know if you try it!
We discussed a couple of competition cooking shows we’re currently watching. There are spoilers if you’re not caught up with these.
So, grab your favorite Lip Smackers flavor, mix up a cocktail, and join us where… The Sideshow begins.
This is the conversation we had before recording episode 118. Be sure to listen to the episode of The Activity Continues that followed this discussion. We dissected The Dead Files “Never Alone” (Season 2 Episode 11 or 9) and that episode will be released on August 1, 2024.
Content Warning:
We didn’t find anything we thought deserved a content warning, but we still swore.
The Activity Continues is a paranormal podcast where soul friends, Amy, Megan, and AP usually chat about pets, true crime, ghost stories, haunts, dreams, and other paranormal stuff including the TV show, The Dead Files.

In this informal and engaging conversation, the participants discuss various personal anecdotes, including technical issues with cameras, preferences in chairs, and the debate over how many lip balms are too many. They also touch on past experiences with lip balms, nostalgic moments, the intricacies of writing drafts to accommodate different audiences, and organizational hacks. There are discussions about their favorite cooking shows, such as 'Top Chef' and 'Tournament of Champions,' and a dining experience at the restaurant Owamni, inspired by Top Chef's Sean Sherman. Additionally, they share a cocktail hack, taste and review some Asian candy, and provide recommendations for TV shows and podcasts, including 'Bodkin,' 'Geek Girl,' and 'Ripley.' The conversation wraps up with mentions of sleep patterns and the challenges associated with using a CPAP machine.
