Swole SistersEpisode 15: Do You Remember Man Yogurt?Hey. We're still here. This episode was recorded in a simpler time, back when Kerri couldn't quite figure out the spike in her anxiety and Bettina had the grumps just 'cus. So we take to Row House with bellies full of tuna fish, to discover that water is probably an important part to the whole rowing appeal. There's a lot of impressions, karaoke, and googling things...and guess what? There will still be a lot of impressions, karaoke, and googling things. Because like we said: We're still here.
