Sound the alarms, notify the press, we’re in our CHOCOLATE MILK ERA.

Think chocolate milk couldn’t possibly fill 20+ minutes of an episode? THINK AGAIN, BROTHER. We have thoughts to share, we have a problematic google brewing (so sorry), we have service journalism to share, and most importantly, we have an attempt to draw a throughline between orange beef and chocolate milk (you simply must tell us if you can co-sign this comparison).

But that’s not all--it’s a week of Whatcha Watchin’, current obsessions (ie big natural jugs o’ chocolate milk), and a listener mail bag moment. If you have been texting us or leaving voicemails on the Best Friend Party Phone, believe us when we say that we cherish every anecdote, snake story, and cover letter. So this week we are delivering two iconic stories, one of which features a maxi pad fluttering American-Beauty-style in the night. Your messages are the IV drips into our period-depleted arms so please never stop sending things to (703) 829-0003.

Poll time! DM @textmebackpod on IG to tell us which is the worst: 

-Sick Puppy

-Fart Mommy

-Dirty Mama

If you must, email us at deartextmeback@gmail.com to send us your cogent, sober explanation correlating orange beef x chocolate milk :[
