OOOOOOBITCH! This week we are causing absolute chaos together, because we were spinning in the same coffin! After an incredible trip to the Orange County Fair we felt inspired to talk about some carnie-centric incidents that proved life’s just not fair! We’ve got an obituary for some good guys, one that was off the rails, and of course, we’ve got some dumb.ass.criminallllllls!
