Show Notes
Kim and Grandma Gail lean into peak October: Kim makes the case for pumpkin candles and When Harry Met Sally, while Grandma champions quilts, murder shows, and practical outerwear. They also ask, “Is the Upper East Side cool again?”, review fall movie comfort watches, and discuss whether climate debates belong at the dinner table. They also unpack why so much TV feels better as clips, talk Borgen vs. Euphoria, and hit the Grandma Report. Netflix and Spotify are teaming up to bring select video podcasts to Netflix in early 2026—validating Kim’s long-held bet on video. The episode wraps with Should We Bring It Back? (matching coats, renting movies) and an Ask Grandma Anything about a grandpa letting an ex live rent-free. Have a question you want answered on the podcast?
