Wesleigh, Hannah and Kate give us an update from the Groundhog Day Marathon! We recorded this at 2am, at the halfway point. In this episode, hear us play Phase 10 (and a group of girls next to us play Settlers of Catan), gush over a real live groundhog in a bowtie, we give props to some of our fellow marathoners, and promise to check in at the end of the marathon … but don’t (sorry not sorry).

GI Joe 2.jpg

We hit a lull in the Tatumverse as we return to the G.I. Joe franchise, a thing we still don’t understand the existence of (Bruce Willis shows up? There is a gun montage? Half of it takes place in Tokyo?). In this episode, Wesleigh shares a cat-related life hack, we reveal what the first movie we each watched in 2019 was, and Katie becomes a socialist.
