Hello, fellow kindred spirits! I want to take a small second to just say that we appreciate your constant support and your constant patience! We have had some hiccups getting the episodes published on time and we have had many 'a hiccups updating our social media accounts, but the fact that you have stuck around to see us through means the world to us! Thank you so much! ALSO within this small episode, we had a small audio issue where throughout the entire episode there is a faint buzzing that you can hear. We are so sorry if this hinders your experience. Another small tidbit I would like to apologize for...Brooke was very out of breath while recording this episode. So she apologizes for the constant heavy breaths within this episode! Pregnancy is no joke - especially in the third trimester!
