EP 233 Anne & Kelli hit the road again including road tripping across the desert!

  • Summary

  • Join Anne & Kelli for their 233rd NEW episode of #ilovemywife podcast. They are again podcasting from home. They start by addressing their feelings post-election and their disappointment in the direction that our country continues to go. They have taken a break from the news and are focusing on staying connected to their friends and family that continue to support each other in these complicated times. They also talk about rallying for mid-tern elections in 2 years and how important every single election is and that we must always VOTE. They talk about Kelli’s travels to Baton Rouge to visit her mother and to have all of her favorite foods like shrimp po-boys, marinated crab claws and char gilled oysters. Next, she headed to Las Vegas to attend the Signature Travel Conference at The Venetian Hotel. Between seeing good travel friends, making amazing new connections and speaking at an LGBTQ Travel Symposium, it was a very successful trip. Next hear about what Anne was up to while Kelli was away. First, to feel better post-election, Anne decided to get a head start decorating for Christmas. She also went shopping and to lunch with her mom, had a Christmas show rehearsal with her Musical Director Will which included a Mexican dinner out, drinking at a local dive bar and a massive hangover the next day! Don’t forget Anne’s upcoming annual Christmas show on Dec 4th at Green Room 42 in NYC. There are also LIVE STREAM tickets if you aren’t in NYC. You can find all of Anne’s tour dates and info at www.annesteele.com Then hear about their road trip across the desert from Las Vegas to Palm Springs which included stops at Cane’s for the best chicken fingers ever, a strange pit-stop at the Pioneer Saloon and a lovely drive through the desert. Once they arrived in Palm Springs, they checked into the new Thompson Hotel that is absolutely stunning and had diner at Tac/Quila. The next day was a show day for Anne so of course she wanted a sandwich from The Sandwich Spot. The show was a huge success and was filled with much needed love and acceptance. Next an after-party at Boozehounds, a brunch the next day at EIGHT4NINE, boozy shopping at Just Fabulous Palm Springs and dinner at Workshop. Finally, they flew home through delays and a very bumpy flight. After getting to sleep at 3am they both made it to their Dentist appointments, even against Kell’s will. Finally, they talk about reaching out to listeners and social media followers about their favorite small businesses to support this holiday season. Starting with Quix Chocolate, check out this Belgium chocolate shop based in Detroit and owned by an amazing gay couple, David and Tony. The chocolates are authentic, delicious and beautifully packaged. www.quixchocolate.com Next, check out Sniff a Pickle, a specialty customized merchandise store owned by their besties and husbands, Jon and Steve and based in Nyack, NY. They also have an online store and have their own line of specialty pickles too! www.sniffapickle.com Last week they talked about their former podcast guests, Gillian and Kim, that own the Asheville Bee Charmer. They lost both of their stores during Hurricane Helene and they could definitely use some support. Their online store is still open and it’s the perfect time to grab some gifts or stocking stuffers and support a lesbian owned business. Check out their favorite, the firecracker honey! www.ashevillebeecharmer.com Many of you reached out about Dapper Boi, a body-inclusive apparel line founded by married couple Vicky and Charissa. If you are looking for gender-neutral, size inclusive clothing that allow people to feel confident and comfortable in their own skin, check it out. www.dapperboi.com Lastly, check out their friend Kathy Valentine, who is a photographer in the tri-state area. She photographed their wedding, lots of Anne’s concerts and so many of Kelli’s cruises.
