Dor & E chat about the (possible?) effectiveness of a good vitamin, bringing in a puppy trainer, and whether a certain Trader Joe’s lunch item is worth cooking in the oven. They also hear from listeners about where to purchase the perfect comfy-but-still-cute-enough-for-a-dinner-out winter boot, the sphincter control of chickens, and the confidence gained from strength training.
