Dealing with stars must be very difficult. These are public people but their life is really interesting. I recently found a link https://only-celebs.fanslet.com/hott4lexi/ and found out about Lexi. Her videos get a lot of views. I follow her on social media. She is cool.
New to the podcast. I've only listened to episode 4 so far because the previous episodes are unavailable on castbox. I would love to get a hold of episode 1-3 somehow. Please keep doing what you guys are doing. Different perspectives is what keeps this world moving.
