Bookmarks? Like with craft paper and a laminator? You bet your sweet ass. Josh Leeper (the other half of Short Leap Theatre Company) turned his teacher free time into a hobby so explosive that he MADE A DIAROMA OF A MINI-HOUSE. What can't this guy craft?

Then "one week" later, Nate and Sam surprise each other with personalized bookmark gifts all their own, and talk appreciation for all those craft people out there.

10 Episodes and BOY ARE OUR HANDS READY FOR PAINTING. Shaina Toledo gives us a stunning rundown on the art of doing your nails, and her personal connection to whole process.

Then, she actually DOES our NAILS. With the gel and the UV and everything! Did Sam get out alive?
