S1 Ep. 48- Frozen 2

Welcome back to Thrak Attack! What's your adventure? This week's adventure took us back to Arendelle and beyond! Frozen 2 was a fantastic sequel that built on the lore and world of that story with an impactful story.

It was a recipe for disaster for an elementary school music teacher who is allergic to cats. So we decided to get a hotel room... A Motel 6 that, for some reason, still has a smoking room! So everything reeked of smoke and of course a blood...
