ep.0 "Is it just us??"
In our 1st/0th episode, we introduced ourselves (a little bit). We discussed what motivated us to start this podcast, and spent some time chit-chatting about whatever came to mind. We only came up with a name for the podcast weeks later. This episode was originally recorded end of last year (2019); we weren't 100% sure we were going to publish it. We are doing it now amidst COVID-19 – listening back to it made both of us quite happy, and we hope to make more episodes starting from here :)
The Youtuber T mentioned is this kid.
