She Is...
Dave and Aaron return to their normal format after the Thanksgiving break just as previous Aaron seemed to return to his (rather unfortunate) normal form. The hosts get to brush up on the now classic "toxic masculinity" critique to see if slightly older high-school Aaron has matured at all.

Not Long Song... Not Long
Welcome to Season 5! Dave and Aaron turn the page in the Wolf Journal to find a new genre of highschool Aaron's writing... lyrics.
