Oversharing
Jolene and Sam introduce themselves and how they got started in making this podcast. Spoiler alert: not a lot about cats and not a lot about coffee. Come for the intro, stay for the laugh track. Grab a cup of coffee (or wine) and settle in for a little bit more about two ladies living it up in rural America.
