Teresa is helping to pack up her childhood home, documenting the process with Polaroids, while Joy sketches poolside in Las Vegas. The two get into a discussion about the role mentorship plays in the development of an artist, and end with their rabbit holes and recommendations segment, where Teresa discovers braided hair in her mom’s attic and Joy eats an exotic fish. The show ends with a memory from the late 80s that involves a cassette tape, the basketball playoffs, Three Dog Night and AC/DC.
