Christmas >> New Years >> Mardi Gras

Howdy,

_{Let’s welcome the 182 readers who have joined the crew over the last 30 days} 😄 

Today's Estimated Read Time: 3 minutes 11 seconds.

Quick Note: our Do Some Good project still has a few slots open for both non-profits and sponsors (help non-profits get promoted while getting promo yourself!) — The deadline is now!

Get more details here, or just reply to this email!

We hope y’all had a great Christmas 🎄🎄 and got to spend some time with loved ones (and if Christmas is a tough time for you, we love you 💌💌)

And we know, we know, y’all are already looking at 2024 celebrations and Mardi Gras ⚜️⚜️

Bookmark our Parade Schedule.

It’ll be here before you know it…

Anyone have an old boombox?? 📻 If so, let us know.

We’d love to recycle it for you and spray it gold for one of our DJ awards and at our Silent Disco Headphone Party!

note: our premium subscribers are in a drawing to get free headphones for the party! (see bottom of email…)

Note: Look, Mobile, I know we all like to wait until the last minute to get our tickets (or headphones). We are going to need to place our headphone order by January 2, 2024. So you best secure headphones as some Christmas stocking stuffers or something. Don’t say we didn’t warn you!
