This week, we're looking back... and looking up. After Cynthia’s recent colonoscopy, we're revisiting our very first Unmentionables episode on hemorrhoids, sharing what we’ve learned from our own butt-based adventures, and proving once again that the most awkward conversations are often the most important, and the funniest.

Thanks so much for listening to Season 4 of our podcast! We're hitting pause for a few weeks to touch some grass, hang out with our kids, start new morning shows, and most importantly, go out and have some fresh adventures and questionable life choices to talk about when we get back.

Don't worry ,we're not gone for long. We'll be back soon with new stories, new laughs, and probably a few things we absolutely should have kept to ourselves.

Thanks for being here with us this season. We can't wait to catch up with you again soon!
