I’m totally kidding. This has actually become one of my all-time favorite podcasts. Josie is great. She’s quirky and cute as the day is long. All of the stories are fun little glimpses into interesting lives and bits of fun from all over the place. I’m glad I just found out about the show so that I can binge for a week or two, and now I’m jealous that you get to have them all for the first time also. Cheers.
