    Both auditions were great and so different! I was lol ing at your mom at things not even meant to be funny, and Sam, your chemistry…it’s unmatched. But I still think you should date, does being cohosts complicate that? Can we have Sam with sometimes special guest Mom? She doesn’t seem to want the gig! Haha.
