What happens when a Bogart movie night spirals into an unexpected hospital visit? Join us as we recount a weekend filled with unexpected twists, starting with a severe stomach ache that led to an ambulance ride and a humorous ER experience. We share the amusing challenges faced by our youthful healthcare professionals and reflect on the gratitude we felt for the care provided and our supportive spouse by our side. As it turns out, the diagnosis was less alarming than anticipated—thankfully—but it was quite the journey nonetheless.

As our ER adventure settled down, our conversation took a surprising detour into the world of college football. The new 12-team playoff system has us scratching our heads, and we're left pondering how teams like Auburn and Oklahoma are shaking things up this season. From unexpected wins to shifting sports interest during the holiday season, we explore how these dynamics keep fans like us on our toes. There's a lot to say about balancing football fervor with the allure of a cozy Bogart night in.

And just when you think we're done with surprises, we turn our attention to the political landscape. We dissect Donald Trump's cabinet picks, marveling at some and scratching our heads at others. Susan Wiles and Tom Holman get our nod of approval, but we're left puzzling over Jeanette Rushwit's appointment as Surgeon General. We also dive into the ramifications of scandals in professional settings, drawing a cautionary tale from a story of career jeopardy. Prepare for a conversation filled with humor, reflection, and unexpected insights that promise to keep you engaged from start to finish.

Ever wondered what makes "Casablanca" a timeless classic worth an 'A' rating? Join us as we kick-start our morning discussing the movie's captivating romance and suspense, while appreciating its subtle storytelling that stands in stark contrast to today's cinematic excesses. We ponder over Ingrid Bergman's beauty and the depiction of women on screen, both then and now. As Humphrey Bogart fans, we're set for a movie marathon and can't wait to share our thoughts on what's next: "The Maltese Falcon." Along the way, we sneak in some tidbits about our personal lives, including new adventures with little Cameron and a nostalgic trip down memory lane to a snowless ski outing.

Shifting gears, we tackle recent political tensions, scrutinizing cabinet picks and the unexpected maneuvers involving Matt Gaetz and Bondi from Florida. With political parties seemingly in a game of chess, we express our frustrations at the slow pace of change and even toy with the idea of forming a new "Firebrand" party to shake things up. To cap it all off, we indulge in a light-hearted chat about what graces our nightstands—from nostalgic clock radios to a trusty book or two—revealing the personal items that bring us comfort as the day comes to an end.
