Find out if Maggie's Spotify Wrapped was as unhinged as 2021 and if she is still into Vampirism. Also listen to find out if Rachel declared it the year of Midnights or Renaissance. In a twist that no one saw coming, these two already best friends were completely *nsync on their top TV show of the year and the rats are absolutely going to hate this announcement. They also selected the "Run Joey Run" of 2022 which will be an ongoing tradition henceforth. Surprising to no one, Justin Timberlake was mentioned for the 100th consecutive episode but surprising to everyone the name Ne-Yo was uttered for the first time in podcast history. Of course we couldn't leave 2022 behind without the most intelligent and idiotic Destiny's Challenge of Year! Although Maggie is no longer butthurt, she had a lot to get off her chest and all we want for Christmas is for the uneducated to stop gassing up JC Chasez.
