An unusual day on the Wrong Side of 40...Kayla Yeh pulls a switcheroo and interviews Caroline, Kerrie Olzak shares some of her "stupid" (her words, not ours) hobbies and total craft fails, and Carolyn Aspenson comes on to dish about whether or not the Forenza sweaters and mom jeans that were the staples of our teenage wardrobes could still be considered rad in today's fashion world. Oh, and the "explicit" warning label for this episode is because of Kerrie's f-bomb during her segment. Thanks, Kerrie.
