The Roswell Incident

We're venturing into full-on bizarre territory this week as we discuss The Roswell Incident! This story has it all: aliens, spaceships, secret cold war projects, and a special shoutout to Fredericton, NB. And although Sarah has been reading about Roswell since 1999 (note: she was 9 years old), she learns many new facts about this conspiracy. Have a good topic we should fixate on or want to reach out?

Dolphin Mothers

Some people are Horse Girls but today we discover that Sarah is a Dolphin Girl.
