  • Can I have another bite of this?

    I love to listen to these guys and feel like we are hanging out, but sadly they can’t hear the things I say. Matthew is funny and ridiculous and entertaining and Rachel is funny, too, and keeps everything orderly and moving along, and sets Matthew straight when he needs to be put in his place! Big fan, would munch!
