Lupus Uncensored

Amy joins Sara as they discuss rising tensions in their relationship due to the pandemic and dissect some of the more explosive fights they've had recently. They discuss coping and communication methods that are helping them get by even though they are isolated separately and haven't seen each other (in person) in almost a month. Per usual this episode is also filled with plenty of random rants and utter nonsense, please enjoy!
