Daniel and Alison (Your Calls and Daniel’s New Girlfriend!)

What’s that saying about how if you can make yourself burp, you’ll never be alone? Daniel and I discuss whether this is true and also Daniel explains whether or not he thinks I have “it.” What is a foam party? Am I experiencing compassion fatigue or just slowly turning into a psychopath? Plus we took your calls, did Deleted Tweets and HGFY, discussed a news story, I challenged Daniel to give me one GD compliment and we talked about how Daniel will be leaving me for the woman from Queen’s Gambit.
