Hey everybody! I'm back with the longest episode yet! Using a new set of recording tools, and I'm not sure my edits took, so please bear with me.... Also LeSha and I are sick, please forgive the sounds of dying.



Talking about banned books today, so there is some mention of sex and sexual assault, as well as brief mention of suicide.

I almost died recording this! I mean, it was just from normal breathing, BUT STILL. We're taking a good look at the electoral college today and if it's worth the paper it's printed on.
