Colin Anderson and Candice Chetta decide to tackle an interesting topic: Apologizing. Who knew there could be so much garbage in one little topic (that turns out to not be so little at all…) You know when people apologize when they don’t need to? Or want to? Or when people apologize and don’t mean it at all? Why do you think this is such a complicated issue when it seems like something that should be so cut and dry? We’re drinking way too many Aperol spritzes and making each other giggle inappropriately in this one. We do, of course, manage to get in some of our favorite Real Housewives for this one, since those ladies LOVE to fake apologize! It’s one of our favorite things! Let us know what kind of experiences you’ve had with apologies and I’m sorries! We’d love to hear from you!
