On this episode, we discuss scripted podcasts, marriage to business partners, Kyrie Irving being unvaccinated, and RHOA (Real Housewives of Atlanta). This interview features a panel discussion with Angel and Gazza, creators of "The Mermaid and the Lion" podcast.

The Mermaid and the Lion a scripted audio drama about two imperfect people who are working on perfecting their love for one another. All relationships are not created equal and no one has the right to determine if your situation is toxic but you. Staying married forever is almost an anomaly; and those who make it have a very dirty story to tell. Angel and Gazza believe they are on the right path to making it last; but the key to their success is understanding where they’ve been.
