    Winter B(EE)reak

    It's the final episode of T&B Season 6 and we're not being scrooges about it! Or MOOCHes for that matter! Find a hunky Santa, jump on the UNfun bandwagon, and join us for carol singing, #BeeTheChange scheming, and, as always, laughs galore. Happy holidays, Hivemind!

    Word WONKs

    This week on T&B, C just got her wisdom teeth pulled, nothing makes sense to Jenn, and the jinglizing continues! Listen to learn about the meaning of TRACKWAY, the deal with CARAT vs. KARAT, and the fate of the Philly jeweler who had a diamond in his beard. We promise we'll have you in stitches!

    Thanks Bee for Family

    It's our annual family Thanksgiving episode, and spoiler: it's low-key awesome! But don't quote us on that (we prefer to remain UNQUOTED.) Join us to talk "hard climb" spellings (C-H-L-O-R-O-P-H-Y-L-L ), share "wow-worthy" words, and break out into spontaneous ALEE jingles. There's always more fun to bee had on T&B!

    Microcrack Me Up

    On T&B we don't just MICROCRACK each other up, we macrocrack each other up! This week we reject UNMAN, rejoice in CARIOCA, and recap where we are with the #BeeTheChange campaign to..."ALEE-viate the injustice"? So skip the BACKTALK, take the CLICKBAIT, and get on board!

    The Bee is Back in Town

    Now that the NYT Tech Guild strike is over, we're back on our game! On this week's episode, C's going nuts for AQUANAUTS, Jenn's delighting in DITTO, and we're both shouting, "Bees ALEE"! If you know how to get Ed Helms on board (puns fully intended) for #BeeTheChange, write us ASAP.

    There's No B in Solidarity

    On T&B when times are hard, you can be sure we have things to say about the word PRIAPIC! This week on the show, we're taking stock of the CRAP that happened on Tuesday, CARPing about dicks, and standing in solidarity with the striking NYTimes Tech Guild workers. We're also revealing the final results of the #BeeTheChange polls. You'll have to listen to find out what word won, but let's just say that here on T&B, we still believe in democracy!
