  • Oh gosh

    The guy has broken up with his bf there’s zero direction. 1 sec talking about his heartbreak next goes onto drink prices, leaving a kid go off on a trip to a water park and the guy he went with had web feet, did he wear flip flops was a comment met either cackling and no he wore sliders. I loved this pod before when Brenda was on, but now it’s just rubbish.
