Jen and David share stories from their romantic lives, while also discussing how Disney felt about ~spicy~ scenes on the show…(although some may say they were more lukewarm than spicy). PLUS when talking about the lore of becoming a werewolf David and Jen accidentally discover a MAJOR plot hole in the wizards series??? Why did Jen ghost the person she was dating? WHY did someone pull a knife on David?? And WHAT IS THE PLOT HOLE??? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
