    Discovered these two a long time ago but for whatever reason didn’t listen on a regular basis. I’m soooooo into the real weird sisters now though! I love Alice and Martha’s sense o’ humor and find myself giggling along with them throughout the episode! Loving the one page at a time format, the reading of the text, the pulling of band names and album titles, it’s all so good. Listening to these entertaining sisters is just as good as a trip to Honeydukes! Highly recommend if you too are a little... more
