Episode 669: Krispy Kreme and Punishment

Episode notes

Cutting donuts in half: Yes or no? The answer is tearing a family apart! Steven and his wife, Joanna, disagree on whether or not to split. Joanna’s sister, Jess, and her husband, Owen, have taken opposite stances on the issue! Steven and sister-in-law Jess say there is nothing worse than a box of donut pieces. Joanna and brother-in-law Owen say that no one should be compelled to eat an entire donut! Who’s right? Who’s wrong?
