S2 Ep38: Sick, Delirious & Accidentally Hilarious
I recorded this one sick, unedited, and maybe slightly delirious. 🙃 Between coughing fits, TRID accused me of auctioning off my phlegm, I accused him of wetting the bed, and somehow we ended up talking about a $50 bucket of pennies, a grocery store robot, and why romance novels only star men with perfect abs. Basically, the most chaotic sick day podcast you’ll ever hear. If you can make it through
