https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZeVzn8R9db0 Season 3 Premiere: Everyday AbsurditiesWhy does a basic greeting card cost $8 now? Season 3 of The Absurdists kicks off with new co-host Brandi Mastrud, who brings Marlo Anderson a list of everyday things we all accept as normal but are kind of ridiculous when you stop to think about them.
Marlo opens with the e-bike that hit him outside the building, then they get into pricey greeting cards, card keepers vs. card tossers, thank-you letters vs. thank-you cards, birthday months, the Texas Roadhouse birthday saddle and birthday spankings.
Then comes tipping: the convenience-store tip screen, why the $2 button wins, whether tipping devalues real service, where tip screens came from, the no-skip tip screen near Flagstaff, self-serve froyo, cash tips and no tipping in Iceland. Plus the oat milk upcharge, credit card fees, coffee dates instead of drinks, a local restaurant’s Halloween decor debate, who gets to trick-or-treat, Christmas Eve shopping, gift exchanges full of gift cards, favorite holidays, Hallmark movies and the top Christmas songs.
The Absurdists, where logic takes a back seat. Season 3, Episode 1 with Brandi Mastrud and Marlo Anderson.
