This weeks episode was recorded on time, but published late! Alexandria has had a great weekend, that she can’t wait to share; but it pushed this episode back, unfortunately! However, this is a jam packed episode for ya! The two cohosts begin the episode with their usual catch up that turns into a discussion about the difference between a early bird, and a night owl. Which are you? They then get into a discussion about the slap heard around the world. The two feel the same personally, but have different thoughts professionally! It made for a great episode!
