Listen "COVID"
Episode Synopsis
Today, Suzanne and Michelle tackle one of the biggest stories of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic. While this event impacted everyone throughout the world, this episode takes a look at precisely how it affected, and continues to affect, our two hosts and their families – decidedly an ‘orange juice not required’ topic.
They begin with the story of their Uber Karaoke video, and then examine the many things that COVID changed or took away in their lives. Stories about laundry, hunting, having husbands around 24/7, and travel are shared, as is the story of Suzanne’s Nordstrom experience. They also discuss thigh gaps, back fat, the moment COVID became ‘real’ for them both, and the impact it has on Christmas for Suzanne’s mother. They finish up with a look at COVID masks and Robb’s beard. This glimpse into the lives of these two great storytellers during this unprecedented time is likely to resonate with all listeners, and is absolutely guaranteed to entertain.
