We wrap up the convo on MBTI from the prior week. After, we switch gears to this week's topic: "Awesome" Google Reviews. You probably use Google Reviews to make decisions where to shop or eat, but have you ever deep dove into them to see the sh*tshow? We did and it's quite something. Mashed potatoes vs. maple syrup, pickle juice vs. mustard, gastrointestinal conflict, and more are discussed in "Would You Rather?". Mitch has a toile...
