In this episode we review Justine Bateman’s Face: One Square Foot of Skin and “Face” the fear of getting older and (gasp!) looking like it.

We are judging ourselves and each other. We both agree that Justine Bateman is such a BADASS woman, she is complicated, and far more than just a face in the...

He taught us a lot about supplements, sleep, and a little bit about sex. We couldn’t get onboard with every...
