In this episode we discuss foods we disliked as kids but like as adults AND food we STILL strongly dislike (-- SPOILER ALERT: beets are on the center of the Rick and Julie Rando Venn diagram on this one)! We also share which celebrities we feel like we know, and deep dive into Rick’s dream random acts of kindness day with the one and only Shaquille O’Neal. Other topics discussed are lessons learned being “theater parents,” and “back in my day” fill in the blanks. Squish in with us! You are welcome here.
