On this week's episode, we try to decide if Colleen would've liked having siblings or hated it. We quote Schitt's Creek for too long and then Colleen tells us about her Cape weekend and how her "cup runeth over" and Bridget has a note she wrote to the tooth fairy. Spoiler alert: she was a drama queen as a child. Then we get into the topic of the week... the 2004 INDIAN OCEAN EARTHQUAKE AND TSUNAMI. And no, it's not like the Earthquake in Freaky Friday, unfortunately. Colleens tells us how it all happened, the devastation the tsunami caused and the incredible survival stories that came out of it. Get ready to have a new fear unlocked as we clutch on to a palm tree for dear life! We end with a giggle as Bridget reads wild Amazon reviews and two positive stories of the week. Don't worry, Alaska will be fine.
