B-Side 7. The Theft of the Mona Lisa 29.03.2021

Warning: Elizabeth attempts to do a bit and it back fires horribly. A lesson is learned real quick. This B-Side we gather 'round to learn about the theft of DaVinci's Mona Lisa, which may be one of the most preventable heists in history, and committed by someone who was not really a criminal mastermind. Listen and learn about the theft of one of the world's most underwhelming pieces of art.  Music...

Then we have what may be our first Horrendous Besties argum...

Despite being such a hideous moment in history, it's not well known and we ultimately find out why.  Sorry Memaw...

B-Side 5. Baba Yaga 28.02.2021

Live Laugh Jeep, Live Laugh Lake Life. Before we jump into this week's B-Side, we quickly discuss the offshoots of the Salt Life cult -- the spin offs, if you will.
