Join the twins as they discuss the second season's premiere episode, "Born to Hang," in which old characters have sadly left, new characters have arrived, and weird comments are made to a potential new housekeeper!

Back to the Bunkhouse is back! It's been a minute- well, more than a year to be exact (though the twins get the date of their last episode wrong in the recording). But never fear- there is plenty of discussion about the last two episodes of The Young Riders' Season 1. If only the twins could remember the characters' names!

Listen in as the twins discuss two episodes: Decoy and Daddy's Girl! Overanalytical as always, Lesley and Missy spend much of the time discussing bears, bear phobias, and bear actors!

If you want to skip the long discussion of recent happenings in their lives (and, unless you are a fan of high school theater, you may want to!) jump to 14:30 in the episode!

Missy and Lesley are back to discuss "Lady for a Night," the episode where Lou decides to have a night on the town and runs into the charming but dangerous Tyler Dewitt. Join the twins as they discuss the exact nature of Kid and Lou's relationship, the inability of Lou to adequately hide the problem-causing pink frock, and the worst advice given in the entirety of the series (at least so far!).

In this latest installment of "Back to the Bunkhouse," hosts Lesley and Missy discuss "Hard Time," the TYR episode where Kid is forced to do some hard time (get it?) in a not-so-secret location after he attempts to help a woman in the ironically-named town of Prosperity. Not only do the twins analyze the merits and mysteries of the episode, but they also debut the first annual game of "Guess the New Year's Resolution: The Young Riders Edition." Grab your leftover eggnog and chase away the post-holiday blues with games, gab, and grading (of "Hard Time"- not unrelated student essays!).
