This week the Has-Beens are bringing fans what they've requested from the early days of the podcast. Jason and Anna sit down for the first ever Wife Takeover on Hometown Has-Beens. The couple plays couple's trivia, discuss what it's like being married to a Has-Been, moving to a smalltown, share shopping stories, life stats, and more. Although the episode lacks mispronounced words from Chris, Ben's confidence in fighting animals, and Ryan's high pitched laugh, it is entertaining nonetheless.
