Big Dad Energy

Yeah you read that title right. Jared has beef with brunch and Joe's going to do his best to represent all normal people and debate against him. Turns out, Jared is REALLY good at talking. We do a lot of catching up in this episode, usually we have a topic, but decided to just chat for this one. A lot of yard talk, Joe's Instagram takeover, and Jared and Katy let us in on their views on raising Ben vegan or not.
