Today's episode is a little shorter than usual (let us know if you like that though, k??) because Nicole was running late but then suddenly showed up in full glam.

They then answer some quick AMA questions about wedding perfume, post-wedding depression, and more! Xoxo...

On this week's episode, the girls chat all things getting older. Why is it that society tries to make us feel not as "hot" when we get married? Or how about the identity crisis you go through in your late 20s/early 30s when -- God forbid -- your body starts to change? This episode gets deep and while it lasts long, it's so much fun that it somehow still flies by in no time (the same amount of time that Nicole can hold her bladder since she's 31 now and pees non stop).

Are you ready for it?? Literally… is anyone ever?

But nothing can’t be fixed by a game of love and war (dad edition of course) because in the end we’re all honestly just bobbing along in the same little boat.
