Episode 139: Scarred For Life
This episode is inspired by the raw emotions of a teenager as we explore the word scar and the phrase "Scarred for Life". Dan quotes many animated 90s movies. Shauna waxes poetic. Dan creates new baseball team mascots. #BunnyTrails
Note: Dan's mic is a little wonky on this one. But fortunately Shauna does most of the talking. We'll get that fixed.
