Pour that cuppa coffee or that cocktail and enjoy our jubilant jabbering.

We debated calling this the ice cream episode! In between nonstop summer confection discussion, Leah’s humongous car trunk, and Eydie’s leopard swimsuit, we’ve got you covered for good times. Oh, and there’s some great Flintstone’s Family Fun Park nostalgia that Leah remembers in between Eydie’s reading challenges and hummus making.
