During her “coma” in 2014, Meg’s adolescent celebrity crush, Andrew Keegan, was accused of starting a religious cult. As Meg has vowed - she finally investigated (aka internet searched and read a ton) to find out what her former heartthrob has been up to in the past decade. 

Meg gives Casey a high-five for their improved communication when it comes to confronting each other about parenting and having difficult conversations without it turning into a fight. Score! 

Also, Casey spills about jury duty. Meg’s slightly offended that she’s never been selected- (she’s never even made it past the first round!) Enjoy!
