Episode 5: Homework

The episode you've all been waiting for... well maybe, maybe not! You see, we wanted the HOMEWORK topic to be our second episode, but it just didn't work out that way. Oh well, it's here and we laid it all out on the line for ya! To homework, or NOT to homework! That is the question! We've tried both! Our thoughts have changed A LOT over the last few years.
