GUYSSSSSSSS this is my favorite episode so far!! I am honestly really proud of this episode and I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it. This week we are talking all about why true crime is so popular and what we can learn from that information. I am a true crime junkie and so this episode is near and dear to my heart. A little less down in the feels but still an awesome self improving, grow with the flow episode. (I'm not entirely sure what "grow with the flow" means but I'm not mad about it.)
