Jordan’s Forehead Scar, Family Porn, Lawn Shrimp

By Alison Rosen on February 20, 2019 in podcast

Oh hi. When you hear this I will likely be somewhere in the labor process. Most likely at the beginning, hence we recorded this ahead of time. Are you familiar with lawn shrimp? We only learned what they are very recently and wish we could wipe this knowledge from our brains. Also, we get into scars, answer listener questions, discuss family porn, vermin, dirt bikes and so much more.

By Alison Rosen on January 24, 2019 in podcast, Uncategorized
