Josie's Lonely Hearts Club

<p>Season Two finale. You better listen all the way to the end on this one, cuties. After a heaping helping of heartache, resident tough cookie Josie gives us a peak of that gooey, nougaty center. Joanne drops a few truths of her own. Along the way, we encounter a crooner in khakis (and a time loop), comfort a gal in love with a slob, and try to piece together a very, very dysfunctional proposal. If time allows, we might even hear from a return caller...</p> <p>Mark your calendars for July 3rd when we come hurtling back for Season Three! If you have ever wanted Josie to solve a quandary of the heart from YOUR life, just record her a voice memo and send that lil' beauty on over to [email protected] - Josie might just read it on air.</p> <p>Our callers included the talents of Shane Salk, Matt Mundy, Danielle Cohn and Carla Lerner Montero.
