About this listen
Stacy, Sofia, Justin, and Tony G discuss everything from failed language lessons and fake Louisiana accents to the thrill (or terror) of roller coasters. Stacy shares stories from the Marine Corps Ball—including her first trip to Busch Gardens, where she firmly skipped the rides—while Tony G defends the adrenaline rush, Justin admits swings now make him sick, and Sofia opens up about her fear of throwing up. The group also talks about the difference between Veterans Day and Memorial Day, and ends with a debate over today’s tipping culture: the guilt, the screens, and whether anyone really deserves a tip for handing you a bottle of water.
