Hey QC FAM! What’s happening! In this episode, I am joined AGAIN by the amazing Christina. In this episode we talk about the disastrous events going on in Texas and how we feel for those being affected by it. We talk about how we're in complete shock by the response of a Texas mayor and the senator.
Then we shift topics and talk about social media affecting relationships, Chris helps me swipe left or right on Bumble. Lastly, we talk about how a trampoline workout is taking over a Boston club.
Thank you to Christina for coming back on this nonsense of a podcast. I love you and appreciate you.

How You can help those in Texas:
- Donate to a mutual aid fund, such as Mutual Aid Houston, Austin Mutual Aid, or Feed the People Dallas. All three groups are working to provide housing, food, and other support systems to those in need.
- Donate to a food bank in Texas. Feeding Texas has a comprehensive list of food banks across the state, searchable by zip code.
- Donate to national organizations, such as the Salvation Army and American Red Cross in North Texas, Central and South Texas, and the Gulf Coast region of Texas.
- Donate to or volunteer with disaster relief organizations like Crowdsource Rescue, which has been activated to help those in Texas.
- Help animals in need by donating to organizations such as Austin Pets Alive!, SPCA of Texas, and Operation Kindness. Note that some facilities, such as Operation Kindness in North Texas, may be impacted by power outages.
