Everything, but the Kitchen Sink

July 24, 2020 14:00 - 55 minutes - 101 MB

This week's episode is a bit of an "everything, but the kitchen sink" type of episode because Kay and Logan had a lot to say about a lot of things (per usual). We start with an update on the #BLM movement, then we talk mental health in the time of COVID-19, and finish with a classic Political Moment. Hope you guys enjoy the episode (and our NEW THEME SONG)!
