The Victory Couch

Sorry we will miss you this week as we are "out of the office," making memories with our family. Listen in next week for the latest episode of The Victory Couch.

Join us this week as Rick is asked to rate Julie's hairstyles of the last 20+ years together. While not as uncomfortable about discussing teen advice for tattoos and piercings, this one made Rick squirm a little BUT he came out unscathed. Just a little friendly couple nostalgia today....also, we take it back to songs of the past that remind us of one another. We also discuss 4th of July foods and habits we would like to break. Squish on in....(The Victory Couch is hosted by Rick and Julie Rando)Show notes: Connect with us on Instagram @thevictorycouch, Facebook, victorycouchpodcast@gmail.com, or www.thevictorycouch.comWant a new Victory Couch sticker for your water bottle, laptop, guitarcase, etc.?
