Alison's Search for Meaning, David's New 'Do, Renee's Attempted Murder Mar 05, 2020

Show notes

Alison violated a sacred marital code which she never agreed with anyway. David is here and he's sporting a new short hairdo. But lest you think he's a short hair newbie, you're mistaken. Renee doesn't know how long her arms are which really worked out for the spider on the wall. Tony's brought some Motion City Soundtrack beer for #SnackChat and Daniel, unrelated, has given up.

Also we do a round of Yes Please or Oh Puhleeze involving coconut jellybeans but first must delineate the difference between jelly bellies and traditional jelly beans. Daniel says something that isn't intended for the podcast but he says it right into the mic. Also there's some beeping, some gentle ribbing and more.
