Episode Summary:
In this jam-packed episode of The Coffee Club, Janae and Ronnie serve up their signature blend of banter, music nostalgia, and local flavor — with special guests and surprising revelations along the way! 🎤
✨ Rising local star Annabelle joins the show to debut her heartfelt new song “Letter to You” and chat about her big move to Nashville.
🎸 Then, buckle up for an epic conversation with Anthony, aka the Hair Metal Guru, whose YouTube success has landed him interviews with legends like Ricki Rocket and a radio gig with Rock 101 KLOL.
💬 The gang also debates proper shower techniques (spoiler: Ronnie’s strategy is gravity-dependent), shares questionable cereal reviews, and drops golden life tips on tipping bartenders, using loofahs, and why you shouldn’t skip breakfast.
