Aloe There! We are Livie Malavazos and Donovan Schar Davis, and we love talking. We love talking to each other and to our friends, and we especially love talking about the things WE love. We are fascinated by the messy mystery that is the human experience, and we want to explore it with you. Our goal is to create a joy-filled escape where we can connect with people from a distance through the things we love. We will be journeying through endless topics, from love and friendship to our favorite rodents and brunch foods. Above all else, we want to laugh and make you laugh. Happy listening!
