DVK does a little bit of a Goldfinger sing along during the opening. “Happy 2019: Leave it in!” DVK does a little bit of a gasser on the way to the letters. They do a little bit of a “Mandy” sing along while reading the first letter. Rory talks about his proposal at an Explosions in Sky concert during the song “Your Hand in Mine.” They weigh the pros and cons of the karaoke proposal. Rory feels like the cat is going to be out of the bag before the proposal actually happens, and DVK tends to agree. They want to be invited to the wedding, of course, and are still lobbying hard to be junior grand marshals at a parade. They say that 2019 is going to be their year. They encourage listeners to write in about their new year’s resolutions, and they are going to stick with their goals of going to a listener’s wedding, and being junior marshals. The 2nd letter opens up with #rrpp for rip-roarin’ pen pals. Rory gets into an extended discussion of expressing his environmental concerns with his family (ie. using too much plastic, thinking about where meat comes from, etc.)
