This week, Kate and Doree help a listener deal with the raw grief of losing a father. Then, they talk about the process of laser hair removal, the potential pros and cons of weekly marriage meetings, and the glory of sometimes eating some straight up butter.

On their latest mini-episode, Kate and Doree debate the merits of beauty subscription boxes — are they fun surprises to get in the mail, or do they just leave you with lots of clutter? They also give advice to a 23-year-old who's wondering whether she should add a retinol to her skincare routine, and Doree discusses her experience with laser hair removal (she is unequivocally pro).  Also, this is the essay that Doree mentioned on this episode.
