Love this. I’ve literally been walking around laughing out loud listening to the MAFS recaps. It’s great to hear Jessie and Claire confirm exactly what I was thinking when watching the episodes, except in a much more hilarious way. You girls are a crack up, keep up your good work.
Stop giggling, girls...

Love the premise of the recaps, but Jessie’s giggling does my head in. You can be funny without sounding like an airhead.
Where’s the MAFS recap??

It’s hilarious but I’ve only heard 2 this season, thought it was one per episode. Am I missing something?
