  • Sad spiral

    Alison's new Julia Roberts ski skope nose looks weird and her voice sounds totally different. She's in obvious pain from her extensive plastic surgeries! Who exactly is she trying to become? This show was fun to listen to and I don't like hearing from her on planet Vicodin with a yellow bruised face!

In 2026 Trump has stopped funding by the billions. Our world is on fire in more ways than one and I think that most of us are trying to figure out what fire is to be put out first. It's a scary time... more

    I always wait to listen to the new pods until I know no one will interrupt and I can feel like I’m part of the convo. And I do love the eps with DQ, the people’s husband!
