gonna leave this here. Links? We don't need no stinkin' links! Enjoy
this episode and call us so we can play your message and kill Skype!
Episode TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY-EIGHT - October 29, 2015
In this special episode of Grits to Glitz, Amy and Bay try to decide on
the best reading for the marriage of Miles Smith and Steve Friess.
Sometimes the joy is so great, the right words are hard to find.
Episode TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY-SEVEN - October 18, 2015
Yamy went to Pawn Donut and Coffee and Bay went to the hospital to have
her innards re-grouted. We're going to have to have strong words with
that Woodrow! Anyway, Bay is going to be fine, and Amy is going to
continue to enjoy living in Las Vegas. This show went all over the
place because we were worried the Skype session would die at any
moment! Come check it out. Should we drink whilst recording? Maybe!
(Maybe we should drink *more*.) Call us! 44-222-96269!
Episode TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY-SIX - October 4, 2015
Lest you think we've deserted you, please know that we've been trying
our best to podcast. We've just been failing miserably. Here's what we
eked out this week. We'll try again next week! Promise!
Episode TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY-FOUR - August 23, 2015
Don't feed the insecure writer!!! But if you do like Bay's show
descriptions, let her know. Otherwise, she'll just keep entertaining
herself. Amy went to Tennessee!!! Bay cooked all week long! Peach vodka
is awesome! Lana is looking for a prince in a toad, when she should be
seeking frogs! Vocabulary Vixen drops in for a visit! And Pride 48 is
less than a week away, woo hoo! Call us at 44-222-96269!
Episode TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY-THREE - August 5, 2015
Yeah!
We're back. Everyone thinks they have to go to the hospital like Bay!
(Including Bay.... as it turns out.) Little Aussie Battler noticed that
*someone* set the Cosmopolitan deck on fire. (Cough, cough, not us, we
swear! OK, maybe...) Amy is heading to Tennessee just in time to catch
all the fun car shopping news! Bay's got a Blue Apron report! And
finally, we loved the movie Trainwreck. Didn't you? Bill Hader, nom
nom!!!! Email us atamy@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY-TWO - June 28, 2015
It's a crazy show (duh!) because we're so happy, we're giddy and gabby!
Yay, SCOTUS! Yay, #LoveWins! Yay, new towels! Wait. What? Oh, yeah,
yay, new towels! Bay is looking forward to Blue Apron deliveries, and
Amy is looking forward to her vacation in Tennessee. And she's looking
for a new housesitter, too. Have you looked at MindMyHouse.com? We
have! Call us at 44-222-96269!
What Amy's new towels would look like if she had waited for SCOTUS and Bay's input!
Episode TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY-ONE - June 14, 2015
Do you know the way to San Jose? Amy does! She treated herself to a
birthday weekend seeing Satyr from The Satyrsphere podcast in "The
Addams Family." Now Amy pines to get back onstage herself! Bay fills us
in on the haps in the cardiac rehab fitness club, including proper
attire, and while Amy wants a Fitbit, Bay just wants cupcakes. Email
us! Slipperyslope@gritstoglitz.com! Bonus content: Amy reviews Dasani
Infusions!
Episode TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY - May 25, 2015
Do you like my hair? Yes! Here's to GRITS* and glitz and good haircuts

bunch of new business. Leave us voice mail at 44-222-96269! (That's

Episode TWO HUNDRED SEVENTY-NINE - April 26, 2015
Whose turn is it to be dramatic? Amy's! No, it's still Bay's turn! No,
it's Lana's turn! Oh, whoever's turn it is, they're being dramatic. We
got musical voice mail! Bay failed a test, and Amy's house was a
victim. We're going to see the Grand Canyon! Amy had a visitor who
tried to steal the affections of Lana the fabulous Frenchie, and Amy's
branching out into old/new gambling games. Write to us at
thedramamustcease@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED SEVENTY-EIGHT - April 12, 2015
What's wrong with you? Well, if you're Bay, there's no way of knowing!
But we're working on it! New listener Erin checks in via email --
you're welcome to do so, too, at bay@gritstoglitz.com, y'know! What do
you know about anemia? New feature: Retread Text Theatre! as performed
by Amy and Bay, via the Interwebs! Do you still get cable, or have you
joined the 21st century like Amy? Bay gives a short report on Townsend,
TN, in springtime, and Amy flew the Slotzilla zip line on Fremont
Street! Call us at 44-222-96269!
Episode TWO HUNDRED SEVENTY-SEVEN - March 29, 2015
Wouldn't you know if it you bought $40 worth of socks? You might know
if it were an auction! Listen, y'all, this is one of our crazier
episodes. We gabbed about everything from sock auctions to French
bulldog farts and right on up to "The Sound of Music" and drones. We
dished Nacho Daddy, March Madness, gambling, and volunteering for NPR
fund drives. Why, we even talked about penis transplants. Can't stand
it? Neither can we! Check out our links at www.gritstoglitz.com! Write
to us at whynoihaveatinypenis@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED SEVENTY-SIX - March 15, 2015
So much happening, it's hard to get it all in one paragraph! Amy has
been a gad-about, flitting from one only-in-Las-Vegas event to another,
and shopping a lot in between. Bay has continued her "oh, woe is me"
thing, but a bright spot showed up in dark, furry cuteness to make it
all worthwhile. Hovercrafts and Vocabulary Vixen! Voice mail pours in!
Call us at 44-222-96269!
Episode TWO HUNDRED SEVENTY-FIVE - March 1, 2015
It's story time! What happens when you Google your childhood
sweetheart's name? Bay can tell you that this makes her legal assistant
instincts go into overdrive. Amy has a Lana report, and the Vocabulary
Vixen is here to lead you to enlightenment. Call us at 442-229-6269

in between episodes. Warning! It's explicit. Like, seriously, really
explicit. Because ... pickle. Amy has a new best friend! Bay has a trip
to plan! We get voice mail now! 44-222-96269! Oh, OK, that's really
(442) BAY-N-AMY, or (442) 229-6269. Sing! Sing a filthy song!

Do ya wanna call us? NOW YOU CAN!!!! We have voice mail! 442-BAY-NAMY,
which is also (442) 229-6269, which Amy likes to pronounce,
"44-222-96269"! While you're at it, please leave us a review on iTunes,
and help us invest in our future. Speaking of futures, Amy's into
Acorns, and Bay's getting retirement investments from work soon. Which
she loves. Have we mentioned? Bay loves her job. Amy got a dash cam!
Take that, Mother Russia! And we're not wearing our pajamas to Walmart,
sorry, People of Walmart. We'll never be on your site. Hey! Give a
listen to Greetings to Nowhere! It's cool! And as always, write to us

Episode TWO HUNDRED SEVENTY-TWO - January 5, 2015
It's episode 272, for real this time! Amy and Bay have survived the
holidays and are more than ready to leap into 2015. It's gotta be
better! We've been bowling, we've seen a movie or two, we're adding
more Christmas music to our list of favorites, and we're planning to
help Bay fake an illness next Christmas eve. Write to us!
Fakesickrocks@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED SEVENTY-ONE - December 24, 2014
It's a Grits to Glitz holiday special! We're just dishing about our
favorite holiday things -- movies, songs, TV specials, fond Christmas
memories, and holidays we wish we could forget. Join us for a long,
reminiscent show! Write to us at youhohohos@gritstoglitz.com or send us
a sound file to play on the air. Happy Holidays, y'all!
Amy has! Tonight's episode has us discussing everything from silk
scarves and eBay sellers' customer service to dog clothes, dogs,
Belgian bistros, Pink Wheelnuts podcast, the Stratosphere, the SLS
casino, Serial podcast and its devotees, and MailChimp, even though Bay
doesn't know what that is. Join us for a slightly longer-than-usual
show! Tell us what you think of -- well, gosh, anything! -- at
grittygrits@gritstoglitz.com.
An example of an eBay scarf - NOT the seller who stiffed Bay!
Don't tell Bay what happens in the Serial podcast after the 1st episode!
Are MailChimp's owners loving the day they decided to sponsor Serial, or do they just loathe the chick who can't pronounce "MailChimp"?
Episode TWO HUNDRED SIXTY-NINE - November 30, 2014
Grits to Glitz is back on iTunes! How do we celebrate? By getting
together in the same place for a holiday that involves awesome food and
cocktails!!! 2014 has been a heck of a year for us, but we're back on
iTunes, upgrading some of our websites, and working on getting better
voice mail. In the meantime, join us in listening to audio books and
fabulous podcasts, reading great articles, worrying about everyone's
animals, and watching movies that will not leave you. (Can you believe
that plot twist?!?!) Plus Vocabulary Vixen makes an appearance to
advocate for overlooked consonants! Write to us at amy@gritstoglitz.com
or bay@gritstoglitz.com! Don't forget to check our website for links
and bonus material! www.gritstoglitz.com
Episode TWO HUNDRED SIXTY-EIGHT - November 9, 2014
At least we can laugh about it -- now. But our October -- after a
pretty cruddy 2014 already -- was really crappy. From bad hair (we
already did the squirrel joke LAST time!), through pet deaths,
co-worker health disasters, and terrifying elevators, and right on up
to hiring lawyers to deal with our sister's estate -- wow! What a
haunting month that was! But then there's a happy, happy ending with a
birthday present that makes everything all right. Write to us at
amy@gritstoglitz.com or bay@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED SIXTY-SEVEN - September 28, 2014
We're getting better about podcasting! Amy went on a trip, and Bay was
in a wreck! Amy saw quality theatre; Bay played like Erin Brockovich!
Bay wants to get beautified; Amy does something about it every single
month! Don't call us. Write to us! amy@gritstoglitz.com,
bay@gritstoglitz.com, or wherearewe@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED SIXTY-SIX - September 7, 2014
We're back! We have good excuses, too. Dog ate our homework, there was
a traffic jam on the interstate, a natural disaster occurred. Well, the
last definitely applies! Anyway, we're back with tales of woe and
destruction, disease and dentistry, and general merriment despite the
crud that fate threw our way this summer of 2014. Can you forgive us
for not podcasting? We're back, we promise! Email us at
amy@gritstoglitz.com or bay@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED SIXTY-FIVE - May 11, 2014
Seriously! We were wondering. And while we're at it, have you been
shopping for strange stuff lately, or is it just us? How do we get
ducks out of Amy's pool? Do you love sushi? Do you mind if we curse a
lot? And is it OK to embrace the gray? Write to us at
ewgrayisgross@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED SIXTY-FOUR - April 20, 2014
Bay's in a play! Bay's in a play! Come to Knoxville and see her in a
play! Amy recaps "Project Runway: Under the Gunn" for us (yay for happy
endings!), and we have the Satyrsphere podcast, ducks, socks, and Jesus
to dish about, too. Yes, it's a fairly typical show. Call us at (206)
309-7232, and leave us a love bomb!
Episode TWO HUNDRED SIXTY-THREE - March 23, 2014
You'll have to tell us how we're doing! Write to us at
Booorrrriiiiinnnng@gritstoglitz.com! But first you must listen to us
worry over Freud's theories, first jobs and how comfy they aren't,
Amy's escaping scarf, things that smell like smoke, and doodles aren't
for dummies! Sheesh, now I need a drink...
Episode TWO HUNDRED SIXTY-TWO - March 11, 2014
Who's ready for a sing-along?! WE ARE!!! It's a weird week, but we do
not want to podfade or skip an episode, so here's a short trip through
Grits to Glitz' favorite podcast-related songs. And a couple of
stories! Like Bay's gambling addiction, and how much we enjoyed being
guests on Fey's The Pink Wheelnuts Podcast! Give us a call! (206)
309-7232!
Episode TWO HUNDRED SIXTY-ONE - February 23, 2014
Hey! Bay swears like a sailor, and y'all noticed! She won't do it
again, promise. Well, not much, anyway. Amy went to the nifty new Las
Vegas Container Park! Bay saved Valentine's Day for her boss! Amy
bought more scarves! Bay hardly cursed at all, and Amy has taken her
powerful speed demon of a scooter on the interstate! *No podcasters
were hurt in the recording of this episode. Call us at (206) 309-7232!
Episode TWO HUNDRED SIXTY - February 9, 2014
Gotta get down on Friday! Wait, this isn't Friday. Well, it's Grits to
Glitz, anyway, and we have tons to chat about! More olive oil chat, and
Taylor Hicks, our friends' comings and goings, and what we wrap around
our necks. Email us at alagloire@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED FIFTY-NINE - January 20, 2014
Didja head out on the highway? If you did, you're hangin' with Amy now!
We had a podcastapalooza all by ourselves, judging from the wide range
of topics we covered. Scooters, pork chops, olives, olive oil, roller
coasters, bed bugs (don't let 'em bite!), Vanderbilt's medical
facilities, Harley Davidson motorcycle classes, and leaving the lights
on for a year at a time. Good heavens! It must be Grits to Glitz. Our
voicemail is (206) 309-7232!
There's a Bed Bug Registry. (Bay endorses intelligent, informed travel.)
Episode TWO HUNDRED FIFTY-EIGHT - January 6, 2014
We went to podcast land and all we got was this fabulous podcast! OK,
that might be the drinks talking. Anyway, we finally found out what was
wrong with Bay's tree, we worried about Amy's helmet hair, and we smell
marvelous. Seriously! Vocab Vixen makes a holiday visit thanks to a
beloved listener's pique, we need to unlock our phones with our faces,
and sheep might come equipped with doorbells. We're not sure. Holler at
us! dingdongthesheeparegone@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED FIFTY-SEVEN - December 22, 2013
Dear Listeners: Tonight Bay goofed.There was a gaffe. A mistake. An
error. A flub. She started with the question, "Can I complain about my
Christmas tree again?" And then we didn't talk about Bay's sub-par,
super-fat Christmas tree. It's a Freudian slip. Who wants to talk about
morbidly obese Douglas firs? No one. We all want to pretend that
doesn't happen in America. So that's what we did tonight. But that tree
is struggling with a weight problem. And next January, we'll have an
intervention. If you want to hear about Christmas prep, new Vespas, and
movies we want to see, go ahead and listen. Just don't expect to hear
about Bay's chubby tree. Call us! (206) 309-7232!
Episode TWO HUNDRED FIFTY-SIX - December 8, 2013
Knock, knock. Who's there? WE ARE, BITCHES!!!!!!! Yes! Amy and Bay are
back, not with a Thanksgiving episode (because who's grateful for all
the stuff that broke this year?), but with a generic gabfest. We're
still sisters, and best friends, and people who love E TN, Las Vegas,
and everyone and everything in between. Except homophobes and loud
morons. Smart phones and smart TV's are outsmarting us! We lost stuff
we love! We found stuff we love! And you can leave us voice mail at
(206) 309-7232!
Eek! Super giant Ferris Wheel threatens to eat Las Vegas!
Episode TWO HUNDRED FIFTY-FIVE - August 24, 2013
It's the end of Bay's trip report to Amy's home in gorgeous Las Vegas!
We really did a lot, so hold on to your iPods and listen as we talk
about the Las Vegas Farmer's Market, Red Rock Canyon, Red Rock Casino,
the Yard House gastropub, Penn and Teller, the Hoover Dam, FatBurger,
and of course, the Stratosphere rides. Hey, we also went to the Pinball
Hall of Fame! Email us at crazyfast@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED FIFTY-FOUR - August 4, 2013
It's a Grits to Glitz travelogue! Bay took a newbie to Las Vegas to
visit Amy, and good times were had by all. (Including the
meteorologists!) Manhattan Express, Shark Reef, Aria, Cosmopolitan,
Crystals, Caesars Palace, Sushi Roku and Comme Ca reviews feature
heavily in this week's extra-long podcast. Did we see lots of Las
Vegas? Oh, yeah, you betcha! Leave us voice mail at (206) 309-7232!
Episode TWO HUNDRED FIFTY-THREE - July 7, 2013
Buckle your seatbelts, Glitzlings, this is going to be a bumpy podcast!
Amy and Bay are a bit tipsy, a lot punchy, and full of fun things to
talk about! From Amy's eyes (how are they?) to Bay's slightly crunched
Prius (eek, no!) and all the way up to the dishes they've bought and
whether they even know anyone who qualifies for a Senior Citizen
Discount -- this is a crazy podcast. Aren't you glad? Write us a note
at yallaredrunk@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED FIFTY-TWO - June 23, 2013
Where, oh, where, are Amy's pupils? And how will we put them behind new
glasses if we don't know how far apart they are? Ep 252 is a bit of a
grab bag of goodness -- glasses, crazy glasses, Mel Brooks, Max Brooks,
herbs, movies we want to see, and of course, our plans for when Bay
gets to Las Vegas with a newbie in tow. Call us! 206-309-7232!
Episode TWO HUNDRED FIFTY-ONE - June 9, 2013
From ringtones to love bombs, we've got it all in this episode of Grits
to Glitz. How do you like trip itineraries? What's your favorite
Sugarhill Gang song? And it's not hoarding if you shred the playbill
within four years, is it? Write to us at discorules@gritstoglitz.com
and let us know what your theme song is!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY - May 26, 2013
Bay didn't go to the beach! But everyone else did. Reports on Amy's
trip to Hawaii, Bay's boys' trip to Edisto Island, a wedding on a yacht
on the Tennessee River, volcanoes, DIY postage stamps, getting
lei'ed... You get the picture. Typical Grits to Glitz gamut! Call us at
206-309-7232 and tell us to chill out!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY-NINE - May 12, 2013
Amy's living life to the fullest. She's flinging caution to the wind.
Well, she's flinging something. It might be sort of green and have
warts, and it probably threatened her fancy goldfish. Toads of the
world, beware! Now, how do we get this onto the front page of Reddit?
Write to us at vacationrocks@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY-EIGHT - April 28, 2013
Welcome back to Grits to Glitz, the low-calorie, high protein podcast
with lots of sugar substitute! And fish. We talked about fish a lot
this week, like the fish in Amy's new fish pond and the sushi that
definitely doesn't have too many calories for Bay's diet. Want some
miso soup with that podcast? Call 206-309-7232 and tell us your
favorite apps that make you feel young!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY-SEVEN - March 10, 2013
We want to live in George Jetson's house and drink his Las Vegas booze,
oh, yes, we do. Don't you? Then this is Grits to Glitz! We're talking
posh estates and cozy cabins in the mountains, cell phones and Internet
radio, and we're even sparing some time for listeners who wrote to us
with handy info! Grind up your greasy coffee beans, and let's dish!
Write to us at midcenturymod@gritstoglitz.com!
Ancient History, Las Vegas style! (a.k.a. the Paradise Palms development)
The cavemen and women who inhabited this storied land! (a.k.a. the celebs who lived there)
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY-SIX - February 24, 2013
It's a teeny tiny itty bitty world, and Amy finally enjoyed it! Well,
not really. But sorta. Amy went to a Disney park (Disney's California
Adventure) and enjoyed it! This is major, y'all. Next year we're
sending her to Orlando for a four-hour marathon of Buzz Lightyear's
Space Ranger Spin. We're also enjoying frozen yogurt shops, plans for
other vacation trips, and Great Danes who have puppies! How do you like
your brain freeze? Tell us on our voice mail at (206) 309-7232!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY-FIVE - February 10, 2013
Where the heck have we been?! Oh, yeah, we were sick. Somewhat. That's
OK, we're back in with a voice mail from a loyal listener, and we're
dishing about scents (still!), guns (first time!), drag queens in
Knoxville and great restaurants in Las Vegas, and oh, so much more. Who
had which malady? Tune in to find out! Write to us at
What@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND
FORTY-FOUR - January 6, 2013
It's a long Grits to Glitz after too many weeks absent! We had a lot of
holiday reporting to do -- mostly about gifts, from bosses and sisters,
and how that makes us feel. Bay is enjoying perfume and Fiestaware
shopping, and Amy is making calls with her new phone. Why, Sprint, why
hast thou forsaken 4G LTE in Vegas?! Sorry we were gone so long, but
happy new 2013! Call our voice mail at (206) 309-7232!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND
FORTY-THREE - December 8, 2012
It's a long Grits to Glitz, so get a beverage and join us while we dish
about how Amy cannot wait to solve Bay's logic problems and broken
spreadsheets, our Christmas shopping ideas, things that shoot at bugs,
great telephone voices, Somersault Snacks, and Supertaster tests! It's
a packed podcast. (And some things are gross.) Write to us at
tastesyucky@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY-TWO
- November 27, 2012
It's our Thanksgiving show! What are you thankful for? It better not be
anything gross like "family" or "health." We're thankful for smart
phones, mail-order wine, dogs who play favorites, and so much more!
Tell us what you think at (206) 309-7232!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY-ONE
- November 4, 2012
What do you mean, you didn't say anything? Amy and Bay have a bit to
dish about, so here it is: Bubbly bulldog Lola won a Halloween costume
contest. Also! The best thing about working in downtown Knoxville this
month is the Grill at Highlands Row, and Amy had drinks with friends at
the Downtown Cocktail Room in Las Vegas. We can't wait 'til
Thanksgiving! Write to us at what@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY -
September 30, 2012
It's the live Pride 48 show! Yes, that was weeks ago. We had such a
good time, we're just now getting ourselves put back together! Now you
can listen in on the fun as Amy had a wonderful show with a live Las
Vegas audience, and Bay chimed in with football commentary in
Tennessee. We still love Project Runway! And we gave away a "Love Is
Love" t-shirt! Relive it with us, and let us know your thoughts at
(206) 309-7232!

usual Grits to Glitz hodge-podge, and we have the guffaws to prove it.
Call us at (206) 309-7232!!!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND
THIRTY-SEVEN - August 19, 2012
We're all about LGBT-friendly podcasting this week, from looking
forward to Pride 48 to dishing about Project Runway. And hey! Dining
shouldn't require post-graduate coursework! Fix a cocktail, pull up
Rate the Runway on your tablet, and let's dish! Disagree with us? Send
us a complaint at youbitchesblewit@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode
TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY-SIX - August 12, 2012
We're still dishing about Project Runway Season 10, even though Bay
skipped a whole show. And we're barely watching the Olympics, but we
love diver Matthew Mitcham and judo girl Kayla Harrison. Which British
event did you prefer, the royal wedding or the Olympics? Pride 48 is
coming! And finally, Project Runway: Drama! Intrigue! Disappearances
and quitters! Call us at (206) 309-7232!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND
THIRTY-FIVE - July 29, 2012
From baby bears to crazy hummingbirds, from blue nail polish to the
Queen's chubby corgis, and right up to Project Runway Season 10, this
week's episode is all about wild things! Oh, OK, really, they're very
tame things. But they're still fun to talk about. Who made your top 3?
Are the judges on drugs again? Let us know -- write to us at
judgesondrugs@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND
THIRTY-FOUR - July 22, 2012
This week we talked about haiku, torturous undergarments, pretty cards,
Rala in downtown Knoxville, peaches and avocados, how "Project Runway
Season 10" totally surprised us, "The Road to the Runway," and yes, for
the third time, "Seeking a Friend for the End of the World." (Because
Bay finally, finally saw it, and we disagree with critics and most
movie-goers; it's really good.) Wesley just asked, "Why do you write
descriptions for the podcast?" This is why. Call us at (206) 309-7232!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND
THIRTY-TWO AND A HALF - July 8, 2012
Grits to Glitz 232, take two! We heard from beloved listeners Steven S
and Paul K; we talked about books 'n' movies, and we discussed strange
high school jobs a bit more. It was so hot, it almost burst into
flames! Not really; that was someone else's job. Amy had a less than
fab experience at the Cosmopolitan, but that's OK, we still love the
Wicked Spoon, and in Knoxville, it's OK to say gay. Honest! Call us at
206-309-7232!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND
THIRTY-ONE - June 24, 2012
What's on your nightstand? Wait, that can be misconstrued. Hey! We held
a podcast and talked about weird stuff. Oh, like we've never done that
before! From old radio shows to the ways the weather affected a summer
job, things we drink and stuff we read, and all the way up to the
things we read things on, it's a gab fest on different sides of the
continent. Write to us at nooksrock@gritstoglitz.com!

Episode TWO HUNDRED AND
TWENTY-NINE - June 10, 2012
Gritty and glitzy things we talked about: Vandalism v. decorating,
Nothing Bundt Cakes, Amy's birthday, Mundo Happy Hour, Borg Cubes,
Jimmy Fallon, Carly Rae Jepsen, "Call Me Maybe," Target's t-shirts
support gay marriage, Venetian's new video feature, cool car features,
Infinitis v. Fiats, Zen mastery of parallel parking, Magpies, and
possibly moving somewhere maybe. Lots of links and videos at
www.gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND
TWENTY-EIGHT - June 3, 2012
If we were a legit Las Vegas podcast, this would be the episode to
prove it. We have more news about the cool new Venetian attraction, and
Amy has a report on the Heart Attack Grill as well as a return visit to
Drink and Drag. Bay visited the Sequoyah Grille in Knoxville as well as
Knoxville's rapidly growing First Friday. The Vocabulary Vixen soaks in
praise for her dominatrix tendencies, and we want to name Kelley's
molly [fish] babies. Plus! Nakey bosses! Profane greeting cards! And so
much more! Email us at hfcscokesucks@gritstoglitz.com!
Looked everywhere for a pic of the Venetian
that was pretty. Here 'tis!
Jahoobies! (Bay thought it was a
really old word by Steven King!)
Episode
TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY-SEVEN - May 28, 2012
WE HAVE A SCOOP ABOUT LAS VEGAS! And... It's a really big show because
we had so many fun things to discuss this week. Holidays, fish, naming
things, listeners in Australia, the definition of the word "biscuit"
(and an accidental recap of Bay's trip to the Biscuit Festival because
it's really that big a deal), and Amy's going to Drink and Drag to see
Pandora Boxx! We've also got garbage cans, great customer service, and
the Vocabulary Vixen brought out the riding crop to inflict a little
pain. Call us at 206-309-7232!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND
TWENTY-SIX - May 21, 2012
Keep your hot air balloons and rolling cheese wheels, thankyouverymuch
-- Bay's got a festival that goes great with gravy! We've got some
updates on stories near and dear to our hearts (koi ponds, the people
who protect them, and filthy little shows in Las Vegas and the people
who see them), as well as really important movie reviews ("Dark
Shadows" and "The Avengers," of course, because we're so intellectual).
Yamy saw "This American Life Live," which makes us want to see more
modern ballet, and Bay pursued massive amounts of carbs. Because we
know what's important in life for realz, y'all. Email us at Barnabuscollinsforever@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND
TWENTY-FIVE - May 6, 2012
Amy needs new kitchen appliances! Why? Because she's spending so much
more time in there! We're worried about herons eating listener Donita's
koi, and we think that New Jersey tanning mom looks like a baseball
glove. (Get out of the tanning bed, ma'am!) Bay enjoys Oodles Uncorked,
an award-winning wine bar on Market Square Knoxville, while Amy still
wishes the Vocabulary Vixen would drop by with something grammatical.
Call us at (206) 309-7232!
Episode TWO HUNDRED AND
TWENTY-FOUR - April 29, 2012
It's a podcast! We talked entirely too much about entirely too little.
But we do that every week, don't we? This week, we're re-capping the
fun we had on the Pink Wheelnuts podcast with Fey Driver and Emergency
Pants podcast gigglemeister Bridget; Amy confesses her deep, dark,
secret-'til-now post-Prom encounter with McMinn County's finest; and
Bay celebrates a year at her fabulous job. Email us at
amy@gritstoglitz.com or bay@gritstoglitz.com or
youslut@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode
TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY-THREE - April 20, 2012 Bay was in Las Vegas with Amy! And then we
chatted about our long weekend! Is Cosmopolitan the right amount of
wrong? Is the M resort good enough to send government officials to a
hearing? Call us at 206-309-7232!
Episode
TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY-TWO - April 8, 2012 It's a special podcast! Especially if you love
old
TV shows. We're readying ourselves for Bay's trip to Las Vegas, and Amy
is wishing she could take a cruise -- but not on the Titanic! Write to
us at thetitanicsank@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode
TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY-ONE - April 1, 2012 Ah, spring! So many things to smell -- fabric
softener, eau de toilette, coffee -- and other interesting things, like
the stuff Bay picks up on her way home from work. What do you like to
smell? Call us at (206) 309-7232!
Episode
TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY - March 27, 2012 Play "Draw Something"! Just don't draw Star
Wars
robots. Bay gets the best parking spot in Knoxville! And then we dished
about the Project Runway All Stars finale. Complain about our late
episode at Bayislazy@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode
TWO HUNDRED AND NINETEEN - March 18, 2012 It's a Grits to Glitz hodge podge! Do you have
trouble staying awake at work? Amy does. Bay's husband is suddenly
tapping into both his wild side and his more domestic side. (Bring your
fluorescent posters and favorite munchies, gang!) What do you collect,
and are your local cashiers nice to you? Let us know at 206-309-7232!
Episode
TWO HUNDRED AND EIGHTEEN
- March 11, 2012 We're back! And it's a longer episode, so if
you're on the elliptical -- feel the burn. We give our vacation reports
(from Cuban food to comic book characters), dish on Amy's bulldog's
progress, ponder the definition of "holistic dentistry," and finally,
criticize the thread out of Project Runway All Stars. Who else thinks
we may need a bad guy after all? Write to us at standbackandchant@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode
TWO HUNDRED AND SEVENTEEN
- February 26, 2012 Happy Mardi Gras! Yeah, we're a little late.
Still! This week's show is truly fat with tales of our plans for trips
(Townsend, TN, and New York City!), Restaurant Weeks in our fair
cities, and lots of opinions on three whole episodes of Project Runway
All Stars. (Austin's still there? Srsly?!) Thanks to Diane, Kyle,
Steven, and our other fabulous listeners for keeping us entertained!
Call us! 206-309-7232!
Vocabulary Vixen loves the graphic
that Steven
sent us!

Episode
TWO HUNDRED AND SIXTEEN - February 5, 2012 Look, we'll be honest: This episode, we
bounced wildly from topic to topic, including, but not exclusive to:
"boners," State Senator Asshat, State Sen. Asshat's expulsion from a
tasty & tasteful Knoxville eatery (that we just talked about on
the podcast!), JC Penney & Ellen, Bates stamping, pictures of
hoohoos, Las Vegas Groupon vs. Knoxville Groupon, cool listeners,
dresses that look like mucus, and, of course, Project Runway All Stars
Season 2 Episode 5 and the Stupor Bowl. Call us! 206-309-7232!
What's this about Bates stamping? (NOTE: No hoohoos
pictured!)
Episode
TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTEEN -
January 29, 2012 And they call it...puppy love for a sweet
new dachshund-lab mix, ahem, yeah, we got the short dog mix part wrong.
But! We talked about other stuff that we didn't get wrong, like the
gayest cities in America, Jaleo at the Cosmopolitan, the Main Street
Station Casino buffet, Project Runway All Stars (whew! better ep this
week!), stupid state legislators & their phone numbers
(615-741-1766), and finally, the best thing about working in downtown
Knoxville this week has something to do with a savory sweet snack.

Video Bonus: In the background,
look for the sign that says, "Live Entertainment"!
Episode
TWO HUNDRED AND FOURTEEN - January 22, 2012 Lots of listener love, Hip To Be A Square
podcast,
Wandering Abroad blog, Death Proof on DVD, Project Runway All Stars'
inexplicably (and inexcusably) bad third episode, Amy's Uggs, stylish
weddings, and more! Call us at 206-309-7232!
Episode
TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTEEN - January 13, 2012 We're on with late birthday greetings,
discussions
of diet foods, and some really inaccurate history! (Gee, thanks, Bay,
for checking deets after recording!) Anyway, why aren't we talking
salads? I dunno! OceanSpray gives Crystal Light a run for its money,
Depression-era reproduction fabrics trip our zizz wheel, and you know
we dished about Project Runway All Stars. What did you think of the
judging? Have you seen any ghosts lately? Call us at 206-309-7232 or
write to us at amyorbay@gritstoglitz.com!
Episode
TWO HUNDRED AND TWELVE - January 8, 2012 Amy and Bay go a little long about a lot of
things, including Googling, Waffle House, Christmas (which arrived on
time whether we were ready for it or not), Christmas gifts that broke,
"Project Runway All Stars," Netflix, "The IT Crowd," "Arrested
Development," typing during podcasting, and Coolato Gelato. Yeah! It's
a fully-packed podcast! Call us to tell us what you're most enjoying
about PRAS! 206-309-7232!
The best thing about working in downtown
Knoxville this week is Coolato Gelato, partly because
they have great paninis and gelato...but mostly because Doris Daylily
loves them.
Episode
TWO HUNDRED AND ELEVEN - December 31, 2011 Hello. We recorded this before Christmas. We
didn't
publish it before Christmas. And here is our pre-Christmas episode,
just in time for New Year's! We didn't take good notes and we don't
know what links to include, so be prepared. There could be anything in
here. Hope you enjoy it!
Episode
TWO HUNDRED AND TEN - December 18, 2011 We're together for one weekend of Thanksmas
joy and revelry! You might recognize the revelry when Bay forgets what
the heck she was talking about. Anyway! Things we discussed, but not
necessarily everything we discussed included: JFG coffee sign light
bulbs, Knox Heritage, Magpie's bakery, Gatlinburg's Cherokee Grill,
insane light shows outside of Knoxville, Sapphire (we've talked about
it before, but it deserves another mention), and the Market Square
Holiday Market, which is now over. Sorry, non-Knoxville visitors!
Christmas
In Las Vegas is a free download this year, thanks
to hip, happenin' recording artiste Richard Cheese!

or bay@gritstoglitz.com,

Episode
One Hundred NINETY-SEVEN - September 11, 2011 The latest in the Grits to Glitz world -- with
lots
of links! Bay loves downtown Knoxville; Amy still loves Las Vegas.
There are some parrot noises in the background and a drooly cat who
almost turned over a lamp, and other than that, we just had to say hi
to bunches of listeners, goodbye to a favorite old podcast, and ay,
caramba! to giant parking lots. Call us! 206-309-7232! Seriously!
Hard core horse tongue action -- wait, ewwwww,
that's a bad title... Clearly very tasty bulldog!
That's better. (Thanks, Peter!)
Fabulous Tim Tam cake will sling a craving
on you! (Thanks, Holly & Mona!)
A deeply addictive podcast by
sweet, shy, and retiring Shane and his troubling friend Bridget. (I
might have chosen the wrong adjectives for this sentence. It's like
MadLibs podcast descriptions!)
Episode
ONE HUNDRED NINETY-SIX - December 5, 2010 We're back! We're stuffed with Thanksgiving
goodies
and hanging out at Amy's little cabin in the mountains while we drink
wine and drunkenly paint our fingernails. It's just a little catch-up
for the first time in a few months, with talk of how we are (fine),
what we're doing now (pretty much the same as always), and our latest
fashion obsession (manicures). Send us an email at Amy@gritstoglitz.com,
or Bay@gritstoglitz.com,
or drop us a voice mail at 206-309-7232!
Bay loves, loves, loves China
Glaze nail lacquer. Especially super glitter Party Hearty!
Episode
ONE HUNDRED NINETY-FIVE -
March 28, 2010 Have you seen anything good on TV lately? We
have! We have seen many good things on TV lately, and we're seeing some
things that haven't been on yet -- but will be! Bay's keeping up with
Project Runway S7, and we agree that it is a very, very good, low-key
season. Amy's got the scoop on RuPaul's Drag Race S2, too! After a few
bunny trails (dogs that shed, pounds that don't), we also get to hear
about Amy's trip to fabulous downtown Burbank, California, where she
.... well, we don't want to spoil the report. It was fun! Oh, also, Amy
needs to break her leg. We're just sayin'. Is all. Thanks for listening!
Amy says Bay needs to get the Furminator.
(We still just love the name!)
Are you watching Project Runway Season 7? Are you
loving it as much as we are? Yay, New York City!
Episode
ONE HUNDRED NINETY-FOUR - February 28, 2010 We're back, and Bay can finally breathe well
enough to podcast. And oh!
We have so many things to dish about over our fabulous cruise! Food,
wine, dining, drinking, laughing, tripping, and passing out! Turtles,
dolphins, and the crashing waves! All of this, and "macawitus
interruptus," too! You'll have to listen to the show to make sense of
it all. Thanks for being such wonderful listeners! We would like to
hear from you -- 206-309-7232!
We hope Shane of Emergency Pants likes this
picture. We thought of him when we saw these signs.
You, too, can swim
with the dolphins at
Dolphinaris in Cozumel!
We can't promise bird porn in public, but you
might like Flamingo Gardens, anyway, if you
like wildlife sanctuaries and low-key touring.
We definitely give Butterfly
World four enthusiastic thumbs up!
Episode
ONE HUNDRED NINETY-THREE - January 31, 2010 Just when you thought it was safe to turn on
the iPod again... wait,
no, that's a different movie. We're back! Just for a quick little
podcast before we jump on a ship and hightail it out of the country! Is
it too early to put our passports in our purses? For this show, we're
running the gamut -- Amy liked a movie, Bay likes her dog and cat, and
we both like a couple of websites like Don't Pee on My House and
RunPee.com. And darn it, Project Runway Season 7 has us on different
sides of the fence! Not that we have time to spend just analyzing it to
death or anything. I mean, we gotta pack!
It's rude to pee in anyone's yard, so if you're
at Mardi Gras, make sure you watch for flying water at Don't Pee On My House!
Going to see a 3 hour movie? Then you
definitely need RunPee.com
to help you time your restroom breaks!
If you've ever wondered just how ugly a baby
bird can be, check out the baby hummingbird on this webcam. Simultaneously
adorable and hideous!
