MSLK - EP64: MARRY ME CHICKEN

Also known as the MSLK's Best Creamy Chicken Breasts-- but the affectionately titled "Marry Me Chicken" will make more sense if you stick around after the episode, where a music video for a song with the same title plays us out. The artist is a good friend of Matty's and they go way back, so please take some time and show some love to his music, and give him a follow on Facebook!
