Dale and I decked to the nines in our Florida best, are back to inject your day with our signature comedic flair. And let's not forget our new producer, who's quickly learning that when we talk about locked doors and wardrobe choices, it's not just chatter – it's an invitation to join in on the fun. From celeb rider revelations to the enigmatic charm of Inside Out Oreos, we're zigzagging through topics with the ease of a pontoon on calm waters (some with topless gals waving hello), ready to reel you back into the fold of Friends Without Benefits.As we settle into luxurious patio furniture with a perfect view of the Intracoastal and lots of snacks, we're digging into some life updates to kick off the season. Dale, in a move that might divide the room, stands up for the underdog of confections: Raisinettes. Huge thanks to Courtney and the whole team at Fidelity Real Estate for letting us start the season at the gorgeous 74 Isla Bahia in Harbor Beach.
