Description

A spider spent the whole episode trying to climb into Brendan's ketchup costume. It almost made it. Welcome back to Weirdos with Christy Carlson Romano and Brendan Rooney. We're married, we're business partners, and this week we're sitting on our front stoop dressed as ketchup and mustard for no reason at all. This week, in a Brendetta, the young workers at Federal Express just stare at Brendan like zombies. Somebody is dealing In-N-Out on Facebook Marketplace, and we settle In-N-Out vs. Whataburger (sorry, Texas). Brendan explains how coyotes talk to each other psychically. A woman steals a 12-foot skeleton from Home Depot right next door to the police station, and the cops track her down with a drone. Maine holds a wife carrying championship, a 99-year-old wing walker breaks the record and her 97-year-old rival wants revenge, and in another Brendetta, cyclists crawl down the middle of the road at five miles an hour and get Queen blasted at them.

No ads and no algorithm, just honest, funny, slightly feral writing that lands in your inbox. Recent letters cover the loneliness epidemic, what nobody tells you about writing a memoir, and what it costs women to build something in public.
