    Hey kids, we're back to close out the year with a little reflection on the past year season/year and what we have planned for the year/season to come. We recorded this conversation back in September, before the events of October 7th and Israel's ongoing siege on Gaza, as such, they are not mentioned here, but were in our last newsletter with educational resources linked below. We wish you all some much needed rest over this holiday time and a prosperous new year! See you in 2024!

    ...About Long Term Housing?

    ...About Long Term Housing?

    Transcript (PDF) available here.

    Fancy a game of Canadian real estate vs. literal European castles, anyone?
    The housing situation is bad and dare we say that the rental situation is worse. This episode (recorded September 2023), Prakash and Kristen discuss their past rental woes and offer some suggestions for renters with the hope that the situation changes for the better. (But it probably won't anytime soon, because you know, *capitalism*.)

    [Revisiting]...How to Self Care?

    [Revisiting]...How to Self Care?

    Transcript available here.

    Hey, kids! After some much-needed rest, we're coming back next month with new episodes! In the meantime, don't get caught up in the capitalist sensation of much of the New Year "self-improvement" mindset. Instead, we recommend using this time as a reminder to prioritize wellbeing and care. As such, we're bringing back this conversation from Season 2, where we discuss what self care is (and is not) with Patricia Petit-Liang, host of Fatal Attraction on CJLO 1690AM.
