After some classic Laura and Erik banter, Laura shares the horrifying moment that made her suddenly realize she has entered an entirely new chapter of life…and let’s just say, she was NOT emotionally prepared. What starts as shock quickly spirals into a hilarious deep dive into all the other random discounts and perks people “of a certain age” can score. Some are exciting. Some are humbling. All are slightly terrifying. Then, after the emotional damage settles in, Erik fires up everyone’s favorite entertainment report, The Double D, packed with celebrity chaos, pop culture nonsense, and the showbiz stories you didn’t know you needed.
