  • Love you two together.

    I listened to every single one of the sex and the city and just like that recaps absolutely love. I’m not a Girls girlie. I can’t. I am one of the people that listen to just the banter every week. I would love for you guys to do a RHONY. Starting at season one recap. Or just a pop culture. There’s always room
