It's fall, and Wynter & Joni have some feelings about that. The girls take you on an international journey, where borders between countries are as irrelevant as borders between genres. And, of course, Wynter dedicates some time to Dancing With The Stars. Come with an open mind and give yourself over to good vibes!

WE LOVE YOU!!!! See ya next week <3 @practical_lace
