Intro

On this week’s episode, Mookie tells the crazy story of a man who was popped for selling drugs out of a vending machine while Erica recounts the story of a woman who goes to unusual lengths to do what brings her joy!

Technically, It Wasn’t ME!

A Detroit man was arrested for selling drugs. What makes this story unique is that HE didn’t actually HAND the drugs to anyone. He simply acquired a vending machine, as one does. Except, rather than placing trail mix, candy bars, and chips in the machine, he put drugs in the machine. So, ACTUALLY, the machine was selling drugs… right?

I Identify as Happy!

A UK mom watched the popular Marie Kondo Netflix show that shows watchers how to organize and de-clutter by getting rid of all of the things we hold on to that don’t truly bring us joy. While watching the show she had an epiphany: her name had to go! Ladies & gents, I present to you: Marie Unicorn Sparkles! I’m pretty sure it’s impossible to be unhappy with a name like that!
