Not us actually delivering premium content to you on a consistent basis as promised(??) This week's episode of The RumDowne is all about LoOvE- we're dishing on all the things you did (and probably did not) want to know about our own thoughts and perceptions on topics ranging from our definitions of love now vs. the definitions we were raised with, some cringe-worthy Valentine’s Day stories, and… "do soulmates really exist?" Plus, we have a special guest star appearance from our good ole' buddy-pal Nathan! Listen in to hear our spicy conversations right on time for one of the world's 'Top 5 Most Overpriced National Holidays' (we're a bit of a critic, but we also love LoOvE over here). "Bottom's Up" folks, enjoy!
