The chemistry, the red flags, the decisions we simply cannot defend… nobody is getting skipped.Plus, we get into the In The City casting shuffle: Amanda is out, Carl is in, and we have questions. We’re also discussing Craig’s new micro-drama, Charmed by a Southern Monster, which sounds like a title we’d come up with after three glasses of wine. All that and more, because there is always another tangent.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
