On this week's episode, Colleen and Bridget are back from Florida and had polar opposite experiences. One went to a spa and the other went to a strip club - you decide who went where. Then we get into the topic of the week... AITA? We do a deep dive into the world of Reddit to figure out if people are, in fact, TA. Would you go fully granny on someone in bed? Would you charge your husband for being forgetful? Would you buy regular milk and switch it out so your stingy lactose intolerant roommate will fess up and sh*t themselves?! Or does ESH? We are the judge and the jury!!!
