Colleen Ballinger has been sharing her life publicly to millions of people online for over a decade, while her husband Erik Stocklin lives a much more private life and barely knows how to use social media. This unlikely couple spends an hour each week discussing anything, everything and sometimes nothing at all about their unique world. Every episode is an open and honest discussion that often leads to discoveries and revelations as they (along with the rest of us) navigate these unprecedented times.
