Dear Pennies and Pallers,

Letter one is from Lulu, who is struggling with how to treat her neighbor who has been accused of a heinous crime (content warning - this letter and our responses address sexual abuse - if you need to you can skip ahead to 39:30). In letter two, Kristin regales us her four-year old’s curiosities. We also talk Disneyland food, not resolving songs, we wish happy birthdays to loved ones, and more!

We wish you well, sincerely,

Your Pen Pals Daniel Van Kirk and Rory Scovel

Dear Pennies and Pallers,

This week we are re-joined by our friend Todd Glass! Letter one comes from Derek, a Paller who asks us about our daily rituals. In letter two, Kristin asks us, what is something that you absolutely love to do or experience, but if you did it all day everyday forever and ever, it would slowly turn into a torturous hellscape? We also talk about peeing in the pool at the pool bar, washing your legs in the shower, TombStone pizzas...again..., and more!

We wish you well, sincerely,
