Kylie has the time, money and resources to make a damn good product. She hasn't and that's a reflection of her character. Period.
IS ALL THAT FAMILY HAS EVERRRRRRRRR DONE IS STEAL IDEAS. They take EVERY IDEA someone else is organically stepping up to roll up into a patent and go big. They STEAL all those ideas and patent them INSTANTLY as theirs. There are entire documentaries on their theft. EVEN THE LIP LOGO ON THE BOX WAS STOLEN. As Kim's Emogi creator - he list his home fighting her for stealing it and ran out of money.
How about go to all these people you love their ideas and approach them like Shark Tank. INVEST IN IT. Become their partner, use it on your own socials and bring them up along beside you. Be a champion for Women. Help your fellow man. Make a difference in this world.
What do you expect from Kris the social climber on the backs of ANYONE to become wealthy. Kris had an affair WITH OJ behind her best friends back & HER OWN HUSBANDS. She married Robert because he was dating Priscilla Presleys boyfriend in the 1970s when Elvis was Hollywood. Elvis' right hand man Joe Esposito was dating Kim's Aunt Joanie. They WERE BOTH CLOUT CHASING & GOLD DIGGERS. This Elvis 7yr (longest he ever dated anyone)Girl friend Linda Thompson (runner up to Miss America & was on HeeHaw). Linda split with Elvis in 1976, started dating Bruce after he won the Olympics and was hosting charity tennis matches at playboy mansion. He decides he want to transition. He starts hormones, has facial surgery, has FULL BREASTS. Kris meets him at the Tennis club and had always had the hots for him loved his fame. Talks him into DETRANSITIONING so they could date. Everything was so hard Bruce he goes back to "easy life" and reverts back to being Bruce. She has known their ENTIRE MARRIAGE he was Trans. Linda had a reality show with her husband David foster w/ BRUCES BIO SONS WITH LINDA. From EARLY 2000's Kris has been chasing a reality show too. Even having the girls be on Linda's sons spin off show "The Hills"
Kris has been stealing ideas and men - HAS TAUGHT HER GIRLS TO DO THE EXACT SAME.
The products arent bad…. lol
Very well said.
The fact that neither Johnny nor Kevin can even say Laura Mercier's name without looking ready to vomit is kind of a mood, lol
Church is in people. Today's podcast is paired with a fruity french regional alcoholic drink and lemonade.
My friend literally just asked me if Tang & sparkling white wine could be a mimosa 😂
I've drank worse, I'm no judge
I made a margarita using a pretty good mix from the grocery store and The Rock’s tequila. You’re doing great there hun! Time for our sermon.
Johnny's point, look at the camera, then "you're a con-artist" killed me 😂😂😂
I can’t and never have or will buy anything from any brand from the entire family. I can’t support the crazy expensive lifestyle family.
Same. I will never buy Skims or any of the other things their hands are in.
100% I have never and will never buy anything they're attached to I don't understand why anyone does
They are so gross🤢
I won't even buy anything from Makeup by Mario because of the association. And I think the new satin lippies are quite nice!
@@MyCleverHandle ditto I have never purchased anything of his either.
When you’re on break at Sephora and this pops up 😌❤️❤️❤️
Hoped you had a good shift at work! Stay hydrated and cool this season!
And you go back on the floor all sassed up.
Omygod... hearing Kevin's horror story has now cemented my fear and loathing for beach resorts 💀 A friend of mine went to a resort in Cancun a couple years ago. She said the resort was a bit trashy, the food was bad, and she made the no. 1 mistake of drinking the water there in the restaurant, (for those who don't understand, look up "Montezuma's Revenge"). She said that when she got back home, she got WORMS in her intestines from the bacteria of the food and water. 💀💀 Hearing her story and now Kevin's, I'm never stepping foot in a beach resort.
I've always been totally suspicious of resorts and cruises because of this. Stomach issues freak me out. I will never go to one either!
Oh. My. I hope she made a full recovery. That's horrible. Suddenly I'm just fine with a weekend at a Bed & Breakfast 😮
They still call it that? 😂😂😂
AAAAHHHH!!! I hope she was okay after all that
Proud to say I have never supported the Kardashians. I have never purchased any of their products or watched a show.
The thing with beach resorts...so you're an island in/around the American Continent that has been pillaged for resources for centuries, sea levels are rising, and all of the people who live there are leaving because there's no job opportunities on the island. Then a businessman approaches your government and says, let us build a resort here. It'll bring people to your island which will stimulate your economy and create jobs for your people. All we ask in return is that you don't tax us the way you would a local hotel etc etc. The government agrees but then when they build the resort they build it in such a way that the people that go there never leave the resort, so they never spend money outside the resort so the local economy is never stimulated. They hire employees on the resort sure, but the higher level management, and therefore better paid positions, never go to locals so they're stuck with demeaning, low paying jobs. Sometimes, even the builders aren't local, because it may be cheaper to fly them in from overseas. Nothing the resort owners promised the island ever come to fruition, and since that company isn't paying much (or any in some cases) taxes, the island itself gets nothing from the money that is spent in the resort.
Wow! I didn’t realize this happened. Thanks for informing us.
Literally horrible
Foreign Man in a Foreign Land talks about this happening in the Caribbean. It's straight up exploitation.
Brilliant assessment.
i would highly reccomend Swoop who did a deep dive documentary on the Kardashian/Jenner's. Her docs are intense
Love Swoop! She does the best deep dives!
Oh Agree!
Pat McGrath Star Wars collection🤨
She took her least popular Mothership and literally slapped a Star Wars sticker on top of the existing pallet !
Mind you the pallet was already marked down 40% on her website for MONTHS leading up to the Star Wars release.
She slapped a bumper sticker on the pallet and CHARGED FULL PRICE !
Talk about some shady 💩.
Obviously, she needed to get these pallets sold (most likely getting old) So the 40% off still wasn’t working she had to audacity to take the old pallets and put them out as a new collection by slapping on a sticker.
Never mind the other shady stuff she’s done before … aka taking a former highlighter then put it in an eyeshadow pan.
I just came across this channel recently, and I am loving the content 👏👏👏👏 new subscriber here.
As someone who worked for MAC before the Kylie lip kits when she SWORE her lips were just overlined with 'Soar' and 'Whirl' pencils, I am GIDDY over her decline. I have had so many absolutely heartbreaking conversations with 14 - 17 year olds, trying to desperately get them to understand that they aren't "just ugly" or "too dumb to figure out" a lip pencil because they don't look like Kylie. Frankly, I hope Kylie eventually gets the life she deserves 💅
As a hotelier for 15 years, all I could do throughout the whole story was bang my head against a wall. Unfortunately, you get these types of people in all industries, whether you work in a fancy hotel or walk into Sephora 🤦♀️🤷♀️
Kylie also denied the lip filler because she was 17. It started a global debate (no lie) as to why cosmetic procedures were allowed to be performed on minors... 🙄
She was 16 and it was ILLEGAL & was LIVING with Tyga 🤮 Now they do it at you home all across the country. At the time people were demanding to know what surgeon did it. Well Hollywood has Nip Tick parties since the early 80's. This is How Priscilla Presley got disfigured. The FAMOUS world renowned plastic surgeon was doing those parties and he used an industrial grade silicone instead of filler and ruined 12 women's faces for life. They had to cut her smile muscles in the corner of her mouth to her ear lobes and remove all nodules that started forming and open wounds that refused to heal. She can't smile now with out her face revealing the scar across her face.
Kris LITERALLY is their pimp.
Ive literally been putting off cleaning my vanity so I can watch this while cleaning it and I’ve never been so excited to be productive ❤️❤️
I just realized, tho I'm always interested in whatever subject you're discussing, I would listen to you guys read the freaking phone book and still have a blast. That's rare, and your friendship, that wonderful relationship, is why we all feel like this. ❤❤
I'm with you on that. I watch the podcast on yt and then listen to it with half a brain when I'm on my pc.
Honestly so true!
I wanted to say this before I forget. I’ve been seeing Kylie Skin in T.J. Maxx recently and when I first saw it I genuinely was like: no way.
Me too !!! I found thr toner 2 days ago !!!! I even took a picture
I’m in Canada and Kylie Skin sample sizes of the toners and cleansers are in our Dollar Store!
@@jessicacolgrave4082wow🫢🫨🤯!!
That was me when I saw Pat McGrath at T.J Maxx
Please if you feel comfortable with it… give us an update on the resort disaster. I’m so curious how they are going to respond.
Omg yes update! RIU can be the worst! I’m so sorry!
I remember walking in to Ulta and seeing Kylie cosmetics with all the premium brands and I was like..what the hell...this is made in the colour pop factory
Hearing about the resort situation, as a Mexican I highly recommend people that before they get to the resort, that you stop at a supermarket to get bottled water and alcohol. Even though it's inclusive, you can tip / bribe the staff to let you bring it inside. It's the only way you can ensure that you have good clean water and clean alcohol that's not spiked with anything else
I learn so much every episode I watch. And Kevin talking about his vacation makes me never want to go to a resort.
Johnny and Kevin… the best part of every Sunday ❤
THIS is why we come here: intelligent conversation about ALL aspects of the beauty industry. I had no idea about any of this stuff going down with Kylie's brand. But that's why we need Johnny & Kevin ❤❤
Plus the side stories!
@maryeckel9682 Girl, that's the best part :-)
I LOATHE the Kardashians. It looks like they are finally falling this year and I am so here for it.
As it comes to private beaches in the Caribbean, for lots of countries it’s illegal to have a fully private beach today because historically it’s kept locals from beaches even to the point of criminalizing them.
So they actually can’t pay enough to have a private beach, and if they try locals aren’t having it.
In Aruba that’s Renaissance Island. FYI.
In New Jersey all of our beaches are pay. You need to have a badge to get on the beach during the season.😢
Yeah that whole talk made them sound really insensitive and entitled Americans
“It’s not surprising to me that your empire is crumbling when it was built on lies.” Johnny, I’m less than ten seconds in and hot damn that was poetic and I already know this is going to be a good one!
Sunday just got immediately better
This is literally the best part of my entire week!
Before my mom was diagnosed with cancer, we did her bucketlist trip to Panama with Caravan. AH-MAZ-ING!
Please keep the prayers coming. Her 2nd chemo is this week. The girl that does our hair came to the hospital and shaved her head, since it was falling out in clumps. Cancer sucks
I totally forgot about the suction lip devices!!😮🤣
Having the worst day. I KNOW that Beautiful and Bothered will make me smile 😃 laugh my ass off!❤🎉
My boys are back! Best part of my Sunday ❤
Honestly, I found the podcast from scrolling through shorts randomly one day. I’m so glad I did, too
Tell all your friends! I want them to flourish since they are simply the best
Oh, I've been WAITING for this absolute drag...! 😁 *sips tea* ☕️
omg I'M SO EXCITED FOR THIS. literally getting my leggings on and forcing myself to the treadmill since this podcasts makes working out time fly so fast
Been here since the first show and I rarely comment BUT love how truthful you are… CALL THEM OUT LOVES!!! So tired of Kylie and her whole money hungry family not caring who gets hurt… to the “I can do a make-up line” celebrities. 😮 THANK YOU … fan from the beginning here!!! ❤❤
The Kardashians mother has pimped her daughters out at every opportunity. She should be ashamed of herself, she’s created generational trauma of severe low self confidence all because of greed and fame.
Found you guys from Johnny’s Sephora shorts, but have fallen in love with Kevin (Soo funny) and the chemistry you both have. I look forward to every Sundays show. This was GREAT!!!
I love that these episodes keep getting longer and longer❤❤❤
Me too!! 🙌💖
That happened to my sister and brother-in-law, when they went to the Dominican Republic last year. They ended up coming home 3 days early, after the resort they'd been "upgraded to", turned out to be a complete shit hole.
After knowing that Lady Gaga is playing, Harley Quinn, I am kind of scared of what she might do. Harley Quinn has been a favorite character of mine ever since I was a kid and almost every incarnation of the voice, minus terrace strong, has been great. Not only that I did enjoy the James gun suicide squad movie because Margot Robbie actually got the accent correct and the personality as well. So I may have to see this movie to see how well he portrayed my favorite Harley.
I'm worried too because Margot has been knocking it out the park, especially love the outfits and now it's square 1. I'm like is she going to quirky? Is she going to have the accent? And putting her back with the joker just feels so outdated now
Ooh the Riu horror story reminds me of a horrible experience at Riu Palace in Costa Rica. My friends and I were seconds from being crushed to death by a ceiling collapse in the lobby, then had a diamond ring stolen when the “apology” champagne was dropped off in the room.
Jeezus! Are the two resorts connected? This sounds harrowing. And the ring… 💔
The Newark airport comment was great lol. I went to Disney World for five days recently and both me and my sister are currently dealing with a stomach virus we caught either there or on the plane. There were so many snotty coughing children everywhere. I don't think I have ever felt this sick in my life. When we came back to Newark I was over the moon.
Guys! I was so sad yesterday. I kept looking for the pod. Told the hubby I hoped y’all were ok. lol Realized it was Saturday when I got up to get ready for work today! So ridiculous. Love you both. Thank you for …… just thank you ❤️❤️
You two are genuinely one of the best parts of my week. Just had a massive panic attack and am watching this to help keep calming down, love you both so much❤️❤️❤️
I completely agree with you. The only reason I look forward to Sundays is because of them. Feel better hun❤
Ahh I’m so sorry! I hope you’re feeling better! ❤
Johnny: I barely know how insurance works in the US
Me:…it doesn’t 😂
She launched those lip kits while still denying she had lip fillers. And back then they were 50 bucks. I remember (having had a couple) it meant everything to young girls to have one. Like a status symbol. The Kardashians know exactly what they're doing.
The couple behind that launch and all Kardashian launches are from the UK. They gave a insider interview (Forbes?) and they 100% did all kinds of research into how to create a manufactured demand. It 100% was not organic. SO GROSS.
Kris 100% is their Pimp. Kylie was 16 and it was ILLEGAL for minors to get elective cosmetic surgery under & was LIVING with Tyga 🤮 Now they do it at your home all across the country. At the time people were demanding to know what surgeon did it. Well Hollywood has Nip Tick parties since the early 80's. This is How Priscilla Presley got disfigured. The FAMOUS world renowned plastic surgeon was doing those parties and he used an industrial grade silicone instead of filler and ruined 12 women's faces for life. They had to cut her smile muscles in the corner of her mouth to her ear lobes and remove all nodules that started forming and open wounds that refused to heal. She can't smile now with out her face revealing the scar across her face.
Fenty foundation is still my perfect match outside of Pat McGrath. Not even Haus had my shade as a Black woman. 😢 I hope Mama Riri gets back to work and starts caring again.
I’m so impressed with About Face as a brand. I have seen Halsey perform and she’s great but it’s not for me…her balm blush? 💯
She's got some integrity.
I remember being in Cancun at a resort and our room had a sconce on the wall…when it rained it literally poured water into the light fixture…ummmm, no thank you! Sucks when your holiday is so sh!t. But “I’m shitting up the wall” made me literally snort laugh🤣🤣🤣
I have stayed up past my bedtime to watch this. Worth it. I am sorry that your holiday wasn’t the completely relaxing break you were expecting, Kevin.
Omg I needed this so I don’t have to watch NASCAR with my fiancé.
I just read an article about Joker 2, the director (or someone like that) says it’s not a musical movie. Yes there’s song and music, but not through the entire movie. I’m thinking more like A Star Is Born, music and singing is involved, but the entire movie isn’t that.
I just started watching Drag Race from season 1 ep 1, because there’s so many seasons I’ve missed, (horrible partner that wouldn’t allow me to watch), so I’m starting fresh, and wanted to start fresh so I know who’s returning and how they did the first time around
I look forward to this all week!
Never have supported Kardashians or JS. Wouldn't buy any products from these people because they're all problematic!
I love and appreciate how accurate you were about the Kardashians. I have never been a fan or supported them for the exact reasons you said. How people can buy into the scam is shocking, while people are finally waking up to it, it is too late as their empire is soo large
I think when a makeup or any brand is basically merch based on a cult of personality. When that personality is not liked any more or there is scandals around them, it will affect the brand, ie Jafree star. A positive version is arguably rare beauty or fenty which are less merch like and more of an actual brand, and though it has elements of merch to it (them featuring in campaigns and most knowing they own it, some buy from them because of the founder etc) they are more ‘positive’ people,
Hey heads up on the limited ads. This happened to another creator i watch and she figured out that, once you are on the radar, that button gets auto clicked for a while. She said keep requesting reviews and eventually you will fall off the radar.
I appreciate how honest and fresh your perspective is. I love the two of you keeping things real. 💕
I’ve stayed at the Riu Jamaica and it was horrible as well. The beach was the worst. They put sand on the beach but when you walked into the water , you were walking in mud. Absolutely gross!!!
I am one of your 0001% that followed you over. I love the friendship and it shows and your knowledge. And I don’t even wear makeup. I’m here for the conversation and community. Thank you. ❤
Kevins Aruba story reminds me of when I went to the Bahamas. Supposed to be a nice hotel on the beach, the beach was like 10 feet long fenced off, the AC and water were both not working in the whole hotel, and when you could get the water to come out of the tap/shower, it was dark brown, and they wouldn’t compensate for anything
I disagree with the Rihanna tidbit
Because are we expecting that from Selena Gomez? Are we really waiting for Alex Russo to make a comeback or for her to drop an album? Same with Lady Gaga - like great if she drops music or does something but it's not expected.
Also it was groundbreaking for deeper shades. I'm not saying there wasn't other companies with deep shades, but we got range that wasn't orange/red 😭.
Fenty beauty just doesn't feel like she cares anymore, but also I don't think we need a million additional makeup products because do we really need more waste, and you can only be so innovative as a non make-up artist.
Honestly thank you both (and Johnny for bringing it up) for discussing the way people online bring up humanitarian crises to win "woke points" to own people in arguments. It’s reductive, it’s counterintuitive, and it gets us nowhere ✨️👏
Joker is on Netflix for two more days. Johnny, I went to a Sephora this week and every person who worked there was like your MAC employee character but seemingly none of them had ever tried any of the products Sephora sells and seemed insulted I would think they would let Makeup by Mario or Patrick Ta anywhere near their faces. It was wild. And funny.
That had to be fun. As a retail veteran, I'm very blunt with people like that.
I can’t get enough of you two!!! You have me dying every Sunday!! I look forward for the new episode every week!!!🫶🏼
You two are always honest and on point. I adore the both of you. By the way, I am that .0001 percent. Sending you both positive light and energy. ❤
This podcast WAS BRILLIANT. You are speaking for all of us. You didn't address anything with favoritism. I want you to know we SEE IT. OTHERS WILL TOO. Honesty in this community is SO RARE. This is how we demand change as a consumer. ❤❤❤
Just adore the honesty of this 2!🎯👏
21:50 I dated a dad of a 10 year old sephora girl and I promise you I was the first and only person to say please stop letting her use that and please do the research/ AFTER i gave him all the facts. He thought it was a phase but she went into it with horrible acne and now she has scars. He hasn't flinched. We broke up over this. I'm not kidding
Just the intro had me gagging! So excited for this episode! The tea is HOT!
I’m with Johnny and Kevin in regards to Kylie I was just watching a video about her Jean launch and how only influencers like them.
I have no words for the level of joy you both bring to my Sunday. There’s nothing better than being educated while being entertained. And you’re both endearing AF!!
Happy Sunday beautiful & bothered besties! 🎉🫶
Thank you both for superior, thought-provoking entertainment. My Sundays are now complete.
i’ve been waiting for this so i can be entertained while painting my house!! ❤❤ love y’all
Gaga being compared to an Ethel Merman moment. She has started to descend into Ethel mode. Thanks for putting itinto words.
Always so glad to come here for real talk!!! I would love to hear more about specific products. Like best and worst of brands, best and worst of make-up categories, this or that, makeup Olympics, or maybe if you lost all your makeup what would you re-buy.
The way that you recall the names of discontinued colors is amazing. I would love to see you two play the color game Hues & Cues cause your color recognition is amazing!
When are you starting the Patreon???
How come YT it takes you 2hrs to inform me that B&B❤ is here...get your 💩 together!
Your podcast help me today to overcome feeling lonely and ugly. Please keep it going. You are amazing!
The Half Magic display at my Ulta is in a tiny corner of the store and barely stocked. It is so aggravating!
Johnny is so on point. I stayed at the Riu in July of 2022. The staff was great but it was apparent that they were trying. Management gave no fucks about the facilities.
I love listening and watching. You both brighten my day and a great way to start my work week! ❤
The Britney break the ice part of this omg love you two so much ❤🎉😂
Oh my goodness, Kevin, I'm so sorry that you had such an horrific experience with the resort you were staying in. I hope that something comes of the complaint that you're putting forward. Johnny - I guess I must be part of the group that followed you across platforms - been watching you for ages and it's just so wonderful to see how comfortable you have become across these platforms!
The pod is my calming circle 🧙♀️
As an Ulta employee let me tell you since we tbe Cosmic fragrance no one has bought a full size bottle and i know why it's because when you first spray it out of the bottle it smells like rubbing alcohol... I wore it today at work because we were trying to sell it and halk way through my shift I couldn't smell it anymore so I put on Flower Bomb by Victor & Rolph and thats when people told me i smelled good. Kylie is a peddler of high end trash.
You guys are the best part of Sunday!
Thank you Kevin and Johnny for making me feel so special! Just a short note from someone who loves, appreciates, and cares about you both very much! ❤️🙏🏻🌹🤟
The Kylie (extremely valid) rant ending with "You're. Gross." Perfection. You voiced all the thoughts I've had for years. Also the point about the liner being the EXACT SAME colour as the lipstick, total scam manoeuvre!
Even though I never miss an episode on here, I went on Spotify and took care of the 5 star review because you guys truly deserve it 😊
I live in one of the smallest cities in the UK. We have no "big shops" whatsoever.. and yet: my local Boots recently got rid of their Huda Beauty and Uoma Beauty gondolas and replaced them with a double-width Kylie Cometics gondola. Make it make sense... 🥺💔🇬🇧
You two are just as fabulous as ever!! Good to see you both today & hear some calling out!! 😊❤
Regarding the resort in Aruba. I went there like 8 years ago, and it was actually very good. I'm so sad to see the Resort has become so terrible. So sorry you had that experience. I loved Aruba and their lovely beaches.
So excited for another episode! I also wanted to ask if you guys would consider putting time stamps in your episodes? Like label the intro, the catching up chat, the actual topic of the episode, and purchase or pass? No hate, just a suggestion ❤
When you know you know! Fan from the start. Will follow you both to the moon. Just stay true. We trust you both. ❤ 🎉
Fun fact about the beginnings of Kylie’s brand. So the brand was actually called like “Kylie’s lip kits” or something like that. After they sold out they trademarked “Kylie cosmetics” the very first launch was not with the same lab as colourpop it was a completely different lab & the restock used a whole different formula & I remember the shades were different from the very first launch. Colourpop started to remove the shades that she was starting to release in her line (I remember the blue liquid lips from colourpop got removed when Kylie was about to drop hers). I started to figure out that Colourpop was giving her the more “higher quality” products because the wet sets were the same formula as Colourpop’s super shock formula but they had more reflects & pearls, so I think Colourpop or the lab was giving her the better formulas & than Colourpop was would later put out products that were almost the same or a little slightly off from Kylie. The liquid lipsticks were marketed with the lip liners because liquid lips were a “newer” formula at the time to the public & I think people had difficulties getting use to applying them. The wands on Kylie’s & colourpops were horrible so I think they were smart to sell more products to make it work. Now the lip liners could be used with other products but idk they were smart about it. I think the OG Kylie sucked, the products were cheap & overly priced drug store quality (worse). The packaging was terrible, the first rebrand when she went to ulta (still under colourpop) was okay… the packaging was much better & some of the quality went up, but it still wasn’t worth the price tbh. Now I do think the coty rebrand it is actually better. The packaging is much better (with the core products) the products are better quality they are made in Italy & I’ve heard the foundation is actually pretty good, but I do think they are using the most cheap Italian formulas tho… the blushes & highlighters to me are like Mac’s but it’s like they are not as pigmented & that’s fine, but it’s just more work to be done. I think Kylie knows the brands at its end, she would be smart to keep like 3 liquid lip kits available online & keep like 2/3 other fan fav formulas & just keep it available online only or something.
Also apparently her starting the perfume line, someone said that apparently she’s going to slowly move away from the makeup & move to doing perfumes. Kylie is with coty & since perfumes are more easy to sell to the public I think she’s actually doing a reverse Ariana & she’s gonna release more perfumes. People are smart & know that the Kylie products aren’t gonna make them look like her anymore.
Its Monday mornings when your new episodes drop in Melbourne time (Australia) and if theres anything to help ease the pain of mondayitis its definitely this! Thank you ❤
Ok I NEED to come on and talk shop/shit with y’all about working at a Morphe store as a Keyholder during Covid and when they closed the storefronts after Forma was bought out.
Another wonderful episode, Johnny & Kevin! Thank you.
