As Milton Berle said on many occasions, “Brace yourselves, ladies, it’s gonna be a long one”! Jasmine talked so much this week, we broke an hour!

(Kidding, we know who the real Chatty Cathy of the duo is.)

This week J & M have a nice, long catch up, share news of importance (Jasmine) and vengeful otters (Michael), discuss personal growth goals, and introduce a new segment to the Curbside Cool-Down: Muckles at the Movies (I’m already changing it post-recording because I like this title more), where Michael reviews “Snow White”. Spoiler Alert: Someone was not good.

This episode is chock-full of silliness, sound effects insanity, and a “Back to the Beach” reference!
