This week, Brandi made entry into the sex dungeon with a WHOLE NEW NAME! She is officially Brandi POND! She tells us all about her big day, and Kristin tells us exactly how far her pubes extend down her thighs. (So stop asking about it!)

Then Kristin continues her fun new habit of telling a terribly upsetting story that absolutely no one will enjoy. 

Brittany Smith had some rough years. Following the death of her infant son, she became addicted to meth and lost custody of her children. Eventually, thanks to help from her family and a determination to regain custody of her kids, Brittany got her life back together. She stopped using drugs. She got a great job offer. She was on track to regain custody of her kids. Then one night, an old acquaintance named Todd Smith asked her for a favor. He told her he had nowhere to stay. He asked if she could help him out. Brittany told him he could stay on her couch. That night, Todd attacked her. Brittany fought back. 

And now for a note about our process. For each episode, Kristin reads a bunch of articles, then spits them back out in her very limited vocabulary. Brandi copies and pastes from the best sources on the web. And sometimes Wikipedia. (No shade, Wikipedia. We love you.) We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases.
