    1) Totally prefer the unedited version lol
    2) Much respect to KP for helping on the motor while pregnant.
    3) Edited or not, Fran is hilarious 🤣
    4) That Z is a beast

      Trying to do more Sunday episodes, it’s not easy editing wise as we are open Mon-Friday so that’s when content is being filmed & edited. So this episode was edited late Friday before we went home for the weekend, and that’s why it was either get the video up/done or sensor everything and wait to finish it Monday.

    Gm shipping- so my uncle retired from the ypsilanti parts warehouse. His entire team, including himself, were assembly line workers that were put there to avoid losing their jobs. No one gave a f as they were just buying time to hit their retirement/ buy out date or until they could get back to an assembly plant. That explains the shitty shipping and packaging.
