And why tf am I stuck in this car wash?! What books have you read more than once? Weird gas station bathroom warnings, movie theater experiences...you know how we do! We talk about all the things while sipping on an incredible Peachy Keen crafted by Ronnie.

Ahem, this mofo was recorded when there was still snow on the ground. Why are you just getting it now you ask? Because Alex is a slacker. Childhood games, childhood injuries, beaver vs muskrat. So many topics, so little time! Oh, we also planned a whole ass birthday party for Alex. P.S. it didn't happen. Alex fed us a yummy Raspberry Elderflower Gin & Tonic she found on TikTok after her original cocktail idea didn't make the cut.

I mean really. It's true. A side effect of increased water intake in increased water excretion!

Pregnancy cravings, therapy and tears OH MY! Alex needs a therapist, Dixie needs Joy, Justine loves vegetables and Ronnie is just trying to go to Florida!

We also enjoy a spicy and sweet Raspberry and Jalapeño Martini crafted by Justine. But you'll have to listen to find out what Dixie named this delicious creation!

Is your inner voice an all accepting hippie or a super aggressive drill Sergeant? And why do we feel we need to be a certain size and shape? Are these self imposed or are we trying to conform to societal pressures? In this episode, we explore the influences that have shaped our self esteem and our inner voices, good and bad. We are a little more serious than we usually are this month but you get the same real talk we've always given you! We enjoy a delicious and beautiful elderberry based cocktail created by Ronnie "To Your Health". Cheers!!

Why are the Cheez-Its in my bathroom? Why did you knock if you thought I was using a vibrator? We are talking of course about the little assholes again and the nonsense they pull.
