    On today's episode we have a special guest, HP's sister and we discuss about green flags, red flags, and everything in between. How to respond when you see someone's flags in your life change, giving out warnings to the red flags in your life, the key to HP's heart is to tickle his feet lol along with a few other random topics sprinkled in per usual. We can never stay completely on topic due to our personality shenanigans but somehow we always find our way circling back to the main talking point. Either way we hope you enjoy this episode and don't forget to share feedback.

    When did it become cool to empathize and advertise immoral activities and behaviors? Have we lost our moral scope to differentiate between good and evil? Right and wrong?.. Worshipping/Idolizing celebrities is wrong and a lot of what they promote is immoral.. do they get a pass because you like them or will you stand on your own morals and values and challenge their disagreeable behavior?
