Heated rivalry brought me here, and I’m so glad it did! You are so funny and adorable and I’m loving the commentary. I also love the interview you did with Connor. I’m hoping you can interview Hudson as well. Anyway you’re the bright spot of my day, I can put on your show and smile. Thank you for your energy. 🥰
I’m actually laughing out loud, loud enough to wake up my kids, and I’m learning. So entertaining.

Love the pod, I could listen to Sean & Evan talk about anything 🫶🏼
I will

Be there for 50. Thanks for keeping it real.
