The Suite Life of Rachelle and Kelsey
Thank you so much to some eagle-eyed listeners who alerted us to the fact that we mistakenly published an earlier version of this episode, which contains an error mixing up the Arctic and the Antarctic, which are?famously?polar opposites. If you?re reading this, then you?ll hear the correct version, thank goodness. And as promised in the Instagram post, this version also has Kelsey crying in it. ??
It?s a beautiful day for some big changes and gossip on the high seas! We have been keeping a secret from you for a while, and it?s time to finally share!
