Well howdy doody, it's Tuesday again! This week, Merin and Kenz are joined by plant queen, artist extraordinaire, and savior of the episode- Merin’s college roommate, Kate! We lowkey get pretty fancy with a brie-centered board and lavender-lemonade vodkas, while talking about the life and styles of the man we all love: the one and only Bob Ross. Sit back, relax, and hear all about paint restorations gone wrong, a man called Tito Beveridge, and how you can bring a little joy into your life with the help of good ol’ Bob. For all things related to the Black Lives Matter movement that still needs your attention and dedication https://blacklivesmatter.carrd.co Our good friend, Tito’s Vodka https://www.titosvodka.com/ Two shots of vodka vine https://youtu.be/csn2CIWPVbM Is this the Krusty Krab? https://youtu.be/rMog3TXQRds Get your official Bob Ross supplies (we’re not sponsored, but hey- we wouldn’t say no.

This week, Merin and Kenz go SOLO and celebrate World Gin Day by NOT drinking gin! We talk wigs in the 20th/21st century while sipping on some boxed pinot noir and snacking on Wegman’s gruyere- we’re talking low key, y’all. Listen in to learn about the tedious (and sometimes scary?) wig-making industry, the pro’s of boxed wine, and the way that systemic racism has contributed to the wig industry in the past 60 years. We hope that if you are choosing to listen to Fancy Cheese Tuesday, you are also dedicating time and effort to the Black Lives Matter movement, as well as the ongoing fight for transgender rights.
