Legendary Affirmations and a Missing Book Collection
For this episode, we enjoy a few positive affirmations while deciding whether it is an asshole thing for one AITA poster to purposely leave embarrassing notes for a snooping mother-in-law to find. Then we admit to our bibliophilia and determine whether another poster is an asshole for asking her husband to replace the books he threw away without asking. Also, we’re getting used to a new mic stand so hopefully any audio issues you hear from that will be fixed next time. And if you listen carefully, Ruby the dog wants to say hi. Here are the links to the Twitter posts (which also include the subreddit links), where you can take a look at what else people are saying and comment if you have something to add. There may also be new updates since we recorded this. https://twitter.com/AITA_online/status/1482140247257407492 https://twitter.com/AITA_online/status/1479493130302935040

A Holiday Fire and a Secret Santa Romance?
We’ve already missed a couple of December holidays, but we think we might just be in time for the final few. In this holiday edition of Yes, YTA, we’ve sure got a couple of Christmas assholes. Maybe? We‘ve got one AITA poster who might be an asshole for getting a coworker fired right before Christmas. And another poster might just be the worst kind of asshole, a Secret Santa who wants to broaden the horizons of a coworker who is a little too basic. BTW, we had a little audio snafu, but hopefully, it isn’t too noticeable. Here are the links to the Twitter and subreddit posts, where you can take a look at what else people are saying and comment if you have something to add.

Inopportune Pumping and Questionable Hygiene
It’s not quite Halloween-themed… well maybe... depending on what gives you the creeps. First, we discuss if a Reddit poster is an asshole for complaining about a person breast pumping during an exam. We then consider whether telling someone they can’t visit unless they shower is an asshole move. Here are the links to the  AITA subreddit posts, where you can also take a look at what else people are saying and comment if you have something to add. There may also be new updates since we recorded this. https://www.reddit.com/r/AmItheAsshole/comments/qg16ig/aita_for_accidentally_reporting_noisy_breast/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 https://www.reddit.com/r/AmItheAsshole/comments/qg4986/aita_for_telling_my_friend_she_cant_visit_me_if/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

A Brad Showdown and Goth Chic Housing
After a little break, we’re back with an episode full of cute pictures. We know, wrong platform. Sorry! We start off by discussing who gets to keep the name, the dog or the sister’s boyfriend, and is the dog namer an asshole. Then we consider the benefits of dark-hued curb appeal and whether the poster is an asshole for going that route. Here are the links to the Twitter posts (which also include the subreddit links), where you can take a look at what else people are saying and comment if you have something to add.

A Peeping Fido and a Full Trash Can
It’s a body episode! We’ve all got them, but sadly not everyone is comfortable with them. We first talk about whether one AITA poster is an asshole for freaking out about a dog seeing his girlfriend naked.  We then ponder whether another poster is an asshole for putting a used feminine hygiene product in an acquaintance’s bathroom trash can, which apparently upset him. Here are the links to the Twitter posts (which also include the subreddit links), where you can take a look at what else people are saying and comment if you have something to add.

An Unwelcome Guest and a Misplaced Priority
In this episode, we wonder whether it is ok to walk out of a party without saying anything, or is one AITA poster an asshole? We also discuss whether another AITA poster is an asshole for asking her partner to get her from the hospital during an important football game and supposedly causing drama. A couple of things: It took us a little bit, but we hope we managed to figure out a little something about how to talk about sex/gender in a more inclusive way in the first part of this episode. Also, there is a content warning for the second half regarding potential abuse in a relationship. And forgive some of the bumping noise. I need to change my setup. Here are the links to the Twitter posts (which also include the subreddit links), where you can take a look at what else people are saying and comment if you have something to add.

A Cat Named Dick and an Irate Brother
In this episode, it’s all about funny cats. Well, not entirely. We first debate whether an AITA poster is an asshole for naming a cat with an anatomical shape on its face Richard. We then consider whether another AITA poster is an asshole for taking in his brother’s ex-girlfriend while leaving the cheating brother to fend for himself. Here are the links to the Twitter posts (which also include the subreddit links), where you can take a look at what else people are saying and comment if you have something to add.

The Nude Elephant in the Room and a Spoiler Warning
In this episode, we decide whether a poster is an asshole for asking an acquaintance to take down a piece of nude artwork hanging in the acquaintance’s home, even if she knows the nude person. We also talk about another poster’s decision to uninvite a coworker who constantly spoils things. Is that an asshole thing to do? Also, are character traits and show locations spoilers? If so, I may be an asshole and heads up. Here are the links to the Twitter posts (which also include the subreddit links), where you can take a look at what else people are saying and comment if you have something to add. There may also be new updates since we recorded this. https://twitter.com/AITA_reddit/status/1387889421060562944 https://twitter.com/AITA_reddit/status/1391815898982494211 We’re almost to a slight respite in our hectic schedules. Hopefully, that means we’ll be back to posting episodes a little more frequently.
