In Episode 9 we welcome special guest Teacher Rob back to the pod for a slanguage lesson. We highlight a major pop culture moment that unfolded before our eyes last week and we find out what hot commodity Becca used to trade in the school parking lot.

We’re the Christy Gang – let’s hang!

Show notes & links: 

The new long Bluey episode dropped last week and that extra 20 minutes just hits different. Am I right? 

 ****

The Tortured Poets Department is out and bringing all the controversy. Have you listened?

Episode notes:

Brighton learns what classifies as an emergency, included but not limited to if there is a snake in her room or if she sees the tooth fairy.

Has anyone else every wondered: when does Ryan Seacrest sleep?

We discuss our total eclipse of the heart solar eclipse experiences. Please tell me someone else has seen that youth group drama???

Rob & Becca both had flat tires this week and we try to get to the bottom of if someone is secretly angry at us and slashing our tires. Is it you?
