2-12-15 Nicole Sandler Show – Throwback Thursday: War & Smut Edition

Nicole Sandler with soldier Sidney Pittman in Dharhan, Saudi Arabia - Dec. 18, 1990 Yes, I really did go to Saudi Arabia.

Last night, while going through some boxes in search of another blast from my past (more about that in a bit), I came across my typewritten journal of that trip. I'll be posting the text and more pictures separately as [...]
