Did you know that chewing tobacco served a purpose beyond injecting cowboys with that sweet sweet nicotine? And how often DID people in the Wild West shower, anyway? Kathleen is feeling some hygiene kinship with our frontier ancestors, so she fills everyone in on the real grooming habits from the Wild West. Then, Bethany has been struggling for awhile with a very specific kind of hangup: the fear of what life will look like if she’s actually successful at her current goals. Have you struggled with this? And how do you fix it? Plus, Bethany and Kathleen are AWFUL at role-playing. You’ll be uncomfortable. You’re welcome.
