This week, Olivia, Danielle and Brandt discuss the things we do everyday that we don't realize is because of marketing, and also... well, you'll see. We don't want to spoil the end.

We hope you are enjoying the show and we would love to hear from you. Are there any topics you would like us to discuss in the future. You can also just say hi. We love it when people say hi.
