The gals meet up on the porch and proceed to regale themselves with tales from past episodes.  We find out that Byron likes Alicia's stories, Alicia goes for unintentional humor, and the frozen chicken leg popsicle story just won't die....
We hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as we enjoyed recording it.  There are some sightly disgusting food stories and the audio was a bit iffy in places, but we have good hearts, won't that count for something?
