Episode 10 - The Berenstain Bears and the Bully

Our tenth episode and what a splendid one it is too. Killing two birds with one stone, Betsy and Kate wrestle to the ground a listener recommendation AND a series title. Between speculating about alternate realities, corporal punishment, and baby wigs (which are apparently a thing) the sisters come to a mutual understanding on a title for once. Show Notes: - Yeah.

Apparently shared false memories are a known phenomenon.

Maybe the most fascinating video on the subject.
