Howdy! We're Amy and Nikki! A married queer couple who never stop talking. On our first episode ever, we introduce our podcast and how it came to be. Then we jump right into a few conspiracy theories. Amy tackles some government-centered conspiracies and exposes how unprepared she was. Nikki discusses the out-there theory of the moon being fake and then, dives into the horrible reality of Mount Everest.  Bare with us as we get used to microphone levels and get used to talking to an audience, but we're so excited to start this journey and hope you are excited to listen!
