Episode 6: MilSpouse Talks with Angela Caban

Today on the podcast I'm chatting with my friend and work partner, Angela Caban, founder of Homefront United Network. Almost six years ago she had the dream to put together a network and online magazine for National Guard spouses. Since that time it has become so much more, but the goal is still to connect spouses who otherwise have a difficult time connecting. We have the same hearts for spouses and that is one of the reasons we were drawn together. Recently we began a new endeavor called SpouseTalks with some other amazing friends and military spouses. So we talk about that and other stuff today on the podcast.

Episode 5: True Crime Tuesday Special Episode!

Hi everyone! Welcome to a special episode of Common Sense and Sweet Tea. We are on vacation and my mommy is in town so I decide to put her in front of the microphone to talk about two true crime stories that took place in and near my hometown. Today we sit down to take a look at the cases of Dorthea Puente and the Zodiac Killer. I want to point out that while true crime fascinates me, it is also important to me that we remember and acknowledge the victims of these crimes as well. They lost their lives too soon, and at the hands of evil individuals.
