This week the girls chat about so many random things that it is impossible to even describe it. It's a hodgepodge of epic proportions. Ranging from talking about the Home Run Derby National Anthem to their favorite block size. They are all over the place this week and are doing their best to keep PJ under control since Carson (Jon) is out and not home to wrangle the pup. They talk about David Letterman, Richard Simmons, Sweatin' to The Oldies, and even sourdough bread (when you lose your sew-jo, you go to sourdough!). Time to sit back and giggle your head off. Enjoy!
