Wood puns abound as Pam and Sarah “Ash” them all about how they turned a baller hobby into a thriving business, why COVID-era date nights looked a little different for them, and why Mike has such a complicated relationship with toyboxes. And these games are “awl-some”! (Ok last pun) First up: “Lazy Susan” - the gals take turns spinning the wheel to try to stump Mike & Erica with an object that canNOT be made out of wood. And second: “I’m Going to Cabo and I’m Bringing…” - a game that tests the limits of our guests memories and carry-on capacity. If you missed this one, you WOOD be sad.

So you want to be a crafter. First things first, gather your materials! You'll need: a pair of sharp scissors, superglue, a macrame handbook, some clothes you don't mind getting messy, a GIGANTIC container of loose glitter (the finer the better), some headphones (or speakers will work), and this week's episode of DTTA! Cuz we're going to be making......you giggle. Pam & Sarah are all in on crafting this week: debating which is the best aisle in Michael's, the pros and cons of puffy paint, and, of course, their biggest ever Pinterest fails. Then for games, they're trying to stump each other with some choice mystery crafting projects and the first improv of the season, which can (obvi) only be set in an old school Craft Fair and features two rival crafters plus some not-quite-Etsy-level vendors. So grab your best pipe cleaners, a tackle box full of assorted beads, and your hot glue gun, and let's dive in. Can you say #nailedit??
