to ameliorate the difficulties of being a deaf person in hygeine school.
The ladies talk about finding the perfect dental home when moving to a new town and failing
boards exams and the difference in examiners from test to test.
Irene found Amanda's instagram account the night before we recorded this super last min episode where Katrina wasn't even a co-host yet!
