Ep 91 Off the rails BONUS

Ep. 91 Off the rails BONUS

Welcome to the bench! We write on the bench, we snack with a Swedish accent on the bench (for you #Hammer), and we procrastinate on the bench. Today we didn’t really write, we more did that silly thing you do when you talk and show people pictures on a podcast… that’s why this is a bonus episode! Siana says it’s “the worst audio ever.” Enjoy.
