Episode 3: The Big Crappy Birthday Episode
Barrett and Myles continue their rewatch journey as they discuss episode 3, "The Big Crappy Birthday Episode." In this episode of Half & Half Mona and Dee Dee attempt to throw a joint party, as Dee Dee thinks it'll bring them closer together but it actually just brings up bad memories of the past and reminds us why Mona is so distant. (Cake in the crotch can have that effect on a person.) Also, the big lie that Phyllis has told Mona (and all of us) a million times regarding how Charles and Big Dee Dee got together is finally uncovered and Phyllis has to tell Mona the truth. We dive in on the effect that lie has had on her and how her outlook could change now that she knows the truth. Follow Us! https://www.instagram.com/thebighalfandhalfpod/
