This week, Leslie catches up with Rochelle on her latest adventure to Phoenix where she not only taught a class, but also caught a couple of Phoenix Suns playoff games and a big concert! Leslie is fighting through a sinus infection (hence her "mama sang bass" voice), but the show must go on. They talk Cinco de Mayo, the Coronation, the 3 S's and finally wind down with sentiments for their mothers in honor of Mother's Day. So, Happy Mother's Day to all of our mama listeners out there and those who have mamas because we all have 'em!
