Posted on January 9, 2020January 10, 2020 by Chelsea

When Roseanne finds the alleged pot stash of her daughter’s-live-in-boyfriend-except-her-daughter-moved-out, Chelsea and Andrew have more questions than just “what is this relationship even?” Do we inevitably turn into our parents, or were we never as cool as we remember being?

What happens if you join a cult, and then find out that it’s a scam? Do you turn the con artists into the authorities? Expose them as frauds? Try to get compensation for all their past victims?
