Listeners, we are asking that you kindly ignore the fact that this episode was recorded months ago. What can we say, life got crazy. But we're back!

We had a lot of fun talking about the good, bad, and ugly (huge emphasis on the U-G-L-Y) of each of these cheerleading classics, so we think y'all will really enjoy this episode.  ...
