Everyday Life:Conversations Over Coffee
We have been the best of friends for 15 years (whether he likes it or not..lol). Sometimes it's not what you say but how you say it! Come and laugh with us at our quirky, weird brains as we navigate this thing called "podcasting".
We truly are just a couple of smart asses with diverse interests who need jobs to make an income. Since we couldn't find that in the "normal" world, we came here to give it a go! We truly are grateful you are here to support us on our journey.
If you would like to help us along, we accept one time (or reoccurring) donations thru paypal!
