I have a guest co-host this week! Oh, I Like That host Sally Tamarkin joins me to talk about the commercials that influenced us as kids, the products we desperately wanted to buy (the Talkboy, anyone?) and the ad jingles we still sing to ourselves 30 years later. Especially on a day like today, I cannot recommend this enough: Take a weed gummy and watch 90s commercials on YouTube.

TikTok Star Kate Steinberg is here to talk all things Y2K. Amassing over 800k followers on TikTok and an additional 300k on Instagram, Kate has made a name for herself by performing those moments from our teen years that we wish we could erase from our collective memory (think grabbing your fake Coach bag for a night out at Applebees with the girlies and going into Abercrombie and Fitch and asking for…an empty bag). She makes a case for Uggs, and tells a truly hilarious story about working at a tanning salon in 2011.If you aren’t following Kate…uh…Y…2K?Shop our Amazon Storefront: https://www.amazon.com/shop/geethanksjustboughtit Gee Thanks! appreciates its supporters, especially Alley Peplinski, Becca Sheaffer, Allie Nagy, Angi James, Lindsay Creech and Erin Gibson! Want to hear ad-free episodes earlier than everyone else?

Jessica Langer in the Gee Thanks! group sang the praises of these soft pants. And so then Caralyn Mirand Koch bought them and was like, yep, they are amazing. And then I bought them and confirmed: Yes, amazing.The new Top Buys format is as follows. Like the New York Times bestseller list, like the Top 40, every week we will share with you the Top Buy list, including information like: how long has this thing been on the list? And, has it moved up or down the list? And we’ll run through that at the beginning of the show and then use the rest of our time to talk about a product that is getting buzz within the community.

So when I started Top Buys, I chose the 3 toppiest buys that had not yet made the list. So if The Bra was #1 last week and I talked about it last week but it was also THIS WEEK’S, I would make this week’s Top 3 the 3 toppiest top buys that had not yet appeared on Top Buys. BUT THEN I THOUGHT, this doesn’t make sense. Books are on the bestseller list for as long as they are. SO I am just going to list the toppiest buys and how many weeks they’ve been on the list and then we will note when they get moved.

Caralyn Mirand Kochis back and she got me to go get fitted for a bra for the first time in four (okay, five) years. After I instagrammed that summer 2022 would be known as #looseboobsummer she texted me and was like, “Caroline, that makes me sad!” and I was like, “Caralyn, bras make me sad!” and then we decided to record an episode. I really enjoyed my fitting at Jeanette Bras in Pasadena (not spon, trust me, I paid not a small amount of my own money for 3 bras) and I walked away with knowledge of my size and some really expensive bras. Now I am going to stack my bra drawer with some less expensive bras in the correct size. But if you think I am abandoning #TheLoungeBra, you are wrong, I’m wearing it right now. Though I must admit, it was a relief to have a properly fitting bra for this wedding that I went to last weekend. Everyone wins.

CW: This episode deals with death, depression and grief. If you'd like to send Adriana a birthday card for her April 16th birthday, please email [email protected] with the subject line ADRIANA and you will be sent her mailing address. Thank you to all of those who have reached out so far.Two weeks ago, Adriana Rojas asked the Gee Thanks! Facebook group a question: My husband had the audacity to die on my birthday in 2020 (dark humor is now kind of my thing). I’ll be turning 37 this year, which is the age he was when he died. It’s def f*cking with me a bit that I’ll now be the age was when he died. I need to indulge in some retail therapy (don’t worry, I participate in real therapy, too). What should I buy?What came next was a real outpouring of support, community, love, and thoughtfulness. In the midst of that, a few people asked Adriana if they could send her a birthday card. We're opening that opportunity up to everyone, in hopes of bringing a little joy to an otherwise heavy day.Adriana joins me to talk about her husband Andrew, the last two years of living without him, and the retail therapy she clung to the most. There's both tears and laughter, and I left our conversation feeling so inspired by her strength.Gee Thanks! appreciates its supporters, especially today’s guest Alley Peplinski, Becca Sheaffer, Allie Nagy, Angi James and Erin Gibson! Shop our Amazon Storefront: https://www.amazon.com/shop/geethanksjustboughtit Want to support?

They charged her card and told her the dress would be shipped out the next day. In between that phone call and the next day, an error in communication led Ashley's dress to be sold to someone else. There were no other dresses left. Neiman Marcus apologized and refunded her. But, they said, there's nothing else they can do. Hopeless and frustrated, Ashley went into the Gee Thanks! FB group to share the tale with the community. 72 hours later, a wedding dress miracle happened.

My friend Megan Carranza joins us today to talk about her podcast, Adventures In Autism. Megan started AiA in 2017 after her son Logan received an autism diagnosis at age 4. At the time, Megan couldn’t find any podcasts that weren’t hosted by doctors or therapists. Those were of course invaluable, but she wanted a community of parents just like her. So she created one herself. Megan is amazing, and she is also the younger sister of my friend Melissa, who you may remember from IG stories and $2 Thursdays as my brave and wonderful friend who was diagnosed with brain cancer in May 2020. We get an update on her as well!!And of course, because this IS Gee Thanks and Megan IS an esthetician, she brought skincare recs in the form of an exfoliant and a lash serum that she swears is a game changer.As Megan mentioned, her podcast is not just for people with autism or people who love people with autism. It’s for everyone, and it’s a great learning tool especially if you are looking to learn more about autism or help your kids learn more about their friends or classmates who have autism or who are autistic (however they identify!). “We can always use more allies,” Megan said.PRODUCTS MENTIONED: Listen to Megan’s pod, Adventures in Autism: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/adventures-in-autism/id1436728566 and follow her on Insta: https://www.instagram.com/adventuresinautismpod/Peter Thomas Roth exfoliant: https://rstyle.me/+v1RioMbsdhwH5JHKM6IvaQ Lash Serum: https://amzn.to/3gMBlN3 Gee Thanks! is powered by subscribers like you!

Happy 2022! I am thinking about new things I can do with this podcast. Is it: more episodes? More mini episodes? A rotating small cast of recurring guest hosts? Call in episodes? Having listeners on the show? Weirdly, a lot of people said I should do some solo episodes talking about a product or two each week. I am super down for that, but it also makes me extremely nervous! So I called my friend Kate Kennedy of Be There In Five and asked her if she’d share some solo podcasting tips with me. I remain still overwhelmed but less overwhelmed than before! If you missed my episode of Be There In Five, listen here: https://bethereinfive.com/podcast/2021/12/18/why-buy-the-cowl-with-caroline-moss And Kate’s prior episode of Gee Thanks!: https://play.acast.com/s/geethanksjustboughtit/ep90-bravo-bravo-bravowithkatekennedy Gee Thanks! is powered by subscribers like you!
