  • Very wise this podcast (for some reason I can’t change my review name)

Where did it all... more

By the way, if you read this Mr. Wilson, I’m the girl who argued with you about tiny Tim (you probably don’t remember me). I was talking to my dad about our argument in the spring of 2024, and he mentioned a crippled cath... more
