kat finally doesn't talk about animals and she acts like a mocking child. I wish we replaced kat with Lindsey...
more animal stuff from Kat boring
That was a great story! She is a fantastic storyteller!
CHORLES! Hahaha i love how these two play off their little oopsies 😂
such lovely creatures. thanks for doing what you do
#deathpositive love this, thanks for covering the topic of eco-friendly burials.
enjoyed hearing about Stonehenge
I started listening to Shallow End from first episode and ofc loved it !! The banter between J.G. and Lindsey is so much fun with great episodes of how far down the drain people can go.Buckle up and get you some !
The film the woman was referencing was "They Live" with Rowdy Roddie Piper. 👍
for the love ... Kat is getting to be highly annoying. yah, I know a lot of people will disagree with me, but how many times are we going to hear the musing of some applying today's standards to times such as 1913. the cutesy act is overdone (i dont mean it just for this episode, but. It's a bunch of 'em)! Jethro.... listening for you!!
was it Archie Bunker that wanted Twinkies in his lunch every day?? I know he liked cling peached in heavy syrup too. boy that takes me back !!
Thank you for saying the frequency of going to the bathroom was not just a me issue. Growing up my sister used to call me the family poodle. 1st because of the terrible perm job my mom gave me and 2nd was I had to use the bathroom at every place we visited that I knew had a bathroom. still have the issue, but lost the perm.
You guys were gone for me on castbox completely for awhile. Then there was a few.I got them all now. I haven't been able to get Nan's since the first few episodes,not even able to find it on the Discover. Is she on Himalayan ?
The Asylum story hurt my heart. They're dumped there,many because they were an " embarrassment " to their family. As in the case of the Kennedy girl. She was frisky and didn't bend to the Kennedy father's ideals.
why do thousands of men every year feel it necessary to rape, beat up,stab,shoot women and girls ? There's something very wrong with some men's brains ? I think maybe A. Wormos had a good idea.
I doubt if there's a woman alive that likes having that "lady exam". It's when you are at your most vulnerable. If you have been molested,raped or forced sexually it's a horrible experience. I have had one exam at 20 and I am 73 now. I can guarantee I will never have another. If my junk falls out onto the floor one day,I will flush it down the john. 😝😁
Kat,You had a coconut whoopie pie every day in high school ?! Sounds delicious! Never heard of a whoopie pie.
Until Kat said it i had completely forgotten that JG's story started with a drought lol
Kat struggled so hard with JG's age and black friday! 🤣
