Episode 35 — Watch the Paint Job

“The movies lied to me. This seemed to be a lot easier than it actually is.”

It’s a new year and that means more of Terri talking to herself in a booth while Stephen likely does homework. That’s right! It’s time for new Obscure Chatter!

“If you don’t like a movie that I loved? That’s OK. Totally fine. Just don’t be a dick to me for liking something that you didn’t, and I will return the favor.”
