The SOTA Pop Podcast

S8 E28 Caught Sleeping On the Job?? A very feline session with the UNA Lions!

In this weeks episode, our guests are oddly...quiet?? We had the honor of being joined by campus celebrities, Leo and Una the Lions! They got to.. well.. do something on the podcast. Turns out its harder than you'd think to run a podcast when your guests aren't very talkative. Even so, they updated us on all the mascot tea, including their personal kiss, marry, and eats for other mascots. Stick around through naptime to get some great laughs from this weeks guest.

Hey everyone, I'm so sorry for not getting an episode out last week. Spring Break #spring broke my life and I had quite a few mix ups. We should be back on regular schedule for the rest of this season now, so don't worry about any more crazy unexpected absences.
