Hey guys, I just wanted to give some context before you watch the interview of when this episode was recorded.

It is currently Friday, March 20th in the early afternoon.

And so much is happening with Secret Lives.

So if any news breaks over the weekend, we are not avoiding the topic.

It's just we already recorded the episode and we weren't privy to that information.

So enjoy the episode.

What is up, Daddy Gang?

It was like, the police had had it and they talked about it. And we all just were like, okay, I don't like to judge someone in their darkest moment, you know, like I don't want to judge the person, I'll judge the mistake. And Taylor really has made a lot of changes. And that's what's so hard for me is like, this is my real friend and she does have a really good heart and I love her so much. Seeing that video, it's like so hard because it's just, there's so much pain underneath the surface for Taylor. And I tell her this all the time that it's not who Taylor is. She got caught
