I want to start this episode off with an apology. I was attacked by the crud last week, which kept insisting I lay horizontal no matter how I insisted that things needed to get done. In the end, it was...
Well, it’s episode two, and Michelle is already crying, debating whether she should have hopped on this particular train wreck to find love, and I’m not happy about it. There’s some weird protective instinct I have when it comes to...

It’s been a hot minute since Todd and I recorded an episode on the movies we've seen. In fact, it’s been over a year! The pandemic is no joke, people. But since we are vaxed, we wasted no time heading to...
Bachelor in Paradise Week 4 brought SO...MUCH...D-R-A-M-A. And I loved every second. Some Guy in Austin and I have thoughts upon thoughts. For example: * When did Grocery Store Joe get so feisty?* Will Tammy run out of tears by the end...
The technical difficulties that plagued me during this podcast almost made me lose my Christianity. There's a dainty cloud of profanity that still hangs over the house as I write this sentence, but all I'm going to ask you to...
Well, four hours of Paradise per week seems like way too much time to allow very pretty people to “open their hearts” to each other. Can I get an amen? Especially when all they do is drink, lift weights, and...
