In this festive, chaotic, and slightly unhinged episode, Jennifer and Ely dive headfirst into the mayhem caused by that tiny holiday tyrant: the Elf on the Shelf. From the late-night panic of “Oh no, we forgot to move the elf!” to waking up with coffee in one hand and crafting supplies in the other, the hosts break down the magic, the madness, and the absolute mess this tradition brings into every mom’s December.

Expect stories about elves caught in compromising positions, sugar-high elf pranks gone wrong, the pressure to outdo Instagram moms, and the universal moment when you contemplate retiring your elf early… like tomorrow. Listeners share their most chaotic elf fails, biggest wins, and the creative shortcuts that keep the magic alive without draining every last ounce of your sanity.

This episode is a sleigh ride of laughter, solidarity, and a gentle reminder that the elf doesn’t need a full-blown North Pole production every night. Sometimes moving from the bookshelf to the candle holder counts as holiday magic.

If your elf is currently hanging from a ceiling fan, stuck in a jar, or hiding in the same spot for the third day in a row, this one’s for you.
