Liz is at it again, but this time – on shrooms. Hear as she tells the story of her wild mushroom adventure, and how her alter ego "Party Liz" showed up to a pretty mild afternoon and took her experience to a whole new level. Did she make it home by the time she'd promised her wife, or did Party Liz get in the way of her motherly duties? Will she ever do mushrooms again? Where did the goose come into play? Tune in to find out!

Jen, who was not present for this experimental foraging, had a little adventure of her own this week by attending her very first ecstatic dance class. Listen to hear her recounting of this very new and very Portland experience, and all the uncomfortable moments that ensued. Did she follow the guidance of the man who suggested she, "dance until you drool"?! Why was Guy Fieri there? Will she ever go to ecstatic dance again?

This episode is full of our "We're trying to be open minded, but we're still Midwestern AF" perspectives on these increasingly popular new age activities, and we can't wait to share it all with you.

We love the characters we've been meeting around Portland, who are quite different from the folks we're used to in our hometown of Wichita, Kansas, or even the people Liz met during her years living in Chicago. Stick around for the end where we read posts from Nextdoor to share the hilarity that's happening in each of our neighborhoods.
