Hey besties! Notice anything different? The Smut Show is now Big Yap Energy! At 3 years in it was time for a change but don’t worry: we are still yapping about books mostly and just throwing in some pop culture moments, lifestyle, motherhood etc. Essentially, we’re doing what we were already doing! Kailey is now the permanent other half of the show and the vibes are HIGH!
