In The Valley Season 2, Episode 4, the gang heads to Santa Barbara for some “healing,” but it turns into a group therapy session run by chaos and wine. Jax is in rehab but still manages to text Brittany like he's auditioning for a role in as her ex husband sooner rather than later. Jesse tries...

Lauren and Michele are back from a break(down) with a bite-sized "The Baldwins" recap! It's half the length of this terrible seventh episode, way funnier, and only half as deranged.

Michele and Lauren are joined by chaos connoisseur Ellory Smith to break down The Valley Season 2 premiere — Jax is still in denial, Janet sucks, like a lot, and Lauren & Michele defend being "Jesse's Girls".
