- 1 hour 6 minutesFF: Your Spring TV/Movie Recs
What's with Meghan and the salt shaker this week?! While she's busy seasoning, Melisa makes the tough call to miss The Hunger Games livestream for her friend Samantha's film "Marshmallow".
Meghan has finally watched "One of Them Days" (Netflix), so she and Melisa can FINALLY talk about it! Melisa also breaks down her love/hate relationship with the ending of Netflix's "The Residence," gushes over "Survival of the Thickest." Meghan's been busy with NBC's "Grosse Point Garden Society" and Amazon Prime's "G20," and yes, she's still trying to sell Melisa on Hulu's "Paradise."
Things wrap up with them discussing beverages.
