The Gab Fest Spelling Bee

Most of us don't consider ourselves good spellers. Words are hard! Especially now that technology has enabled us. But what happens when we're so far off that autocorrect can't even save us? This week's episode may not help you spell better, but it will make you feel better about your own spelling mental blocks. And even if you don't learn to spell, you will learn to never trust a big butt and smile.

My Toxic Trait

Listen, we all have them. Those little quirks that we know are annoying and cause ourselves (and/or the people around us) some trouble.

Secrets, Secrets Are No Fun

It's a Nice Day For a White Wedding

It's wedding season! So it's only appropriate that we dedicate an entire episode to the subject. But as it turns out, some crazy stuff goes down at these events. Sometimes it's the little things that start the day off on the wrong foot. Other times, there are problems of epic proportion!

Passion Projects

Have you ever started a hobby and then it became you're whole personality? Well you're not alone. In fact, most of us are guilty of being a little too passionate about our passion. It's just better if you own it, find your tribe and maybe start a club.

Spring Break Round Up

A lot of us are fresh off of Spring Break and that means you all have some stories! But as it turns out, these days, we're less MTV and we're more TLC. (complete with renditions of Bette Midler's, God is Watching us. Oddly enough, that song goes along with so many of these stories)

Weird History

History can be fascinating! Especially when Gabbers send in their favorite historical nuggets that are weird, funny, and sometimes....problematic.
