S4 Ep. 4 - Camp Tales, Plane Snacks, and One Penny Plans

We are back for season four and we are seasoning it right. We swap stories from our camp days, argue about pulp in orange juice, and expose the absolute no foods for airplanes. We test drive Dale’s one penny idea for good and dream up a donation challenge that actually helps the unhoused. There is a goat in Gucci, a python bounty in Florida, and a quick tour of our new studio. Rachel wraps with a gentle PSA to book your mammogram, and Dale reminds us to look for sunlight and choose kindness. ...

S3 Ep. 31 - No Hookups, Just Hysteria: Foot Pics, Florida Headlines & Why Nice Guys Win
