The Hotline Bling Episode!
We're hitting the ol' hotline HARD in a very special Hotline Bling episode. We can only get to so many voicemails each episode, so we figured there's no better way to celebrate the 4th of July than by catching up on a jam packed hotline. From game and guest recommendations to the burning questions that must be answered, we get to it all. We also go through some of Julian's favorite items from the wall and open a couple mystery boxes from Julian's playing days.
