Episode 732: Turtle Power Of Attorney

Episode 730

30th July 2025

You know those neon green signs with a figure reminding drivers to slow down? Is this figure a child or a turtle? Kaelyn and Adam disagree!

Episode notes

Kaelyn brings the case against her husband, Adam. In their neighborhood in Virginia there is a roadside sign reminding drivers to SLOW DOWN! Adam says this sign looks like a turtle. Which makes sense, because turtles are slow! Kaelyn says Adam is wrong. This sign is clearly supposed to be a child. Who’s right? Who’s wrong?
