Two Kinds of People: Family Debates

When you're making a bed, which side is up for the flat sheet? Is it ever acceptable to call someone after 8 pm? What is the correct pronunciation of "Reese's Pieces”? We battle to the death over the answers to your most consistent family debates.

What are the consistent and ongoing family debates in your household? Our Facebook group came through with their most heated family debate topics, and this week we give the ultimate answer for questions like:

  • Should dishes be rinsed clean before they go in the dishwasher?
  • Is it acceptable to call someone after 8 pm?
  • Is a garage for storing stuff, or for storing cars?
  • When you're making a bed, which side is up for the flat sheet?
  • What is the correct pronunciation of "Reese's Pieces"?


Here are links to two things we discuss in this episode:
