You’re funny!’ I got a huge ovation and I was hooked.”</span></p> <p align="left"><span class="color_12" style= "font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;"><img style= "display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src= "https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/show/190745/Mrs._Hughes_episode_image.png" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></span></p> <ul> <li> <p><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif;"><span style= "font-size: medium;">Check out Mrs. Hughes' website, <a href= "https://www.mrshughes.com/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">MrsHughes</a>.</span></span></p> </li> <li> <p><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif;"><span style= "font-size: medium;">Find Mrs. Hughes on <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/mrshughesfanpage1" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">Facebook</a> and <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/user/mrsjohnhughes" target="_blank" rel= "noopener
