In this episode of EMG, Kim and Grandma Gail get ready for summer with a deep dive into Memorial Day plans, vacation prep, and all the unspoken rules of BBQ season. From how long a guest should stay to the best dishes to bring (and which ones to skip), they’re serving up etiquette tips with a side of family banter.

Plus, they chat about what they’re currently watching on TV, react to some wild current events, and unpack a recent Vogue article about dating preferences, including what’s changed and what still surprises them.

It’s the perfect pre-summer mix of advice, opinions, and a little harmless judgment.
