The conversation then turns to Pike's recent failed execution attempt and the bigger questions surrounding the death penalty. Lauren and Lacey don't agree on whether Pike should have received the death penalty, leading to a debate about punishment, age, mental health, and when an execution could cross the line into cruel and unusual punishment.

Episode 98: High School Was 20 Years Ago?!

2026-09-2327:46

Lauren and Lacey are heading back to high school, sort of. With their 20-year reunion approaching, they look back at their Union High School days and talk about the drama of planning a reunion, the classmates they'd love to see, and why reconnecting 20 years later feels a little strange. They also reflect on who they were in high school versus who they are today, from being band and theater kids to building careers, raising families, and becoming much more comfortable with themselves. They share what they'd change if they could go back, what they wouldn't change, old crushes, friendships that lasted, and the realization that everyone from the Class of 2006 has taken a very different path over the last two decades.
