What A Time...

The time has finally come, it’s our MARTIN retrospective episode featuring guests Bri and Tevin, our good friends and super fans! We discuss all things Martin: the friendships, the relationship, the hardships, the fashion, funniest moments, episodes and characters, and the overall impact it’s had on our lives and the culture. We also discuss moments from the recently televised 30 year reunion special. One of our most fun ones yet, if we do say so ourselves. Enjoy!
