    Modern Day Rules for Modern Day Humans (Surprise Episode)

    Hello, Dear Humans! We're hitting pause on our Critical Pivotal Pause and hopping back into your podcast feeds for a special surprise episode. New York Magazine recently published an extensive list of new rules for existing in society today and we felt it only fitting to dust off our microphones and share our thoughts on this modern-day etiquette lesson. Spoiler, there are quite a few we do not agree with! Sit back, relax, and get ready for the normal amount of laughter and silliness you've come to expect from your most human of hosts. Enjoy! https://www.thecut.com/article/tipping-rules-etiquette-rules.html

    Celebrating Black History (Season 1 Replay!)

    Happy Black History Month, Dear Humans!  You'll have to excuse our delayed return for the second half of Season 2. We're having some technical issues and pivoting through them. Until we get everything back up and running, we thought we'd bring you a favorite episode of ours from Season 1. Celebrate Black history, past, present and future with this episode. We hope it inspires you to keep up the work. It's been another year, but we're still far from where we need to be. #BlackLivesMatter

    How to Pivot into Adulthood

    Do we ever really reach an age when we feel like "real" adults or are we all just making it up as we go along? In Episode 3 Maya and Eliza explore what it means to enter into adulthood and how to be at peace with the fact that no one's path is going to look exactly the same. Sometimes being a grown-up means being aware of the world around you and how your actions impact others, and sometimes it means holding tight to childhood wonder. Happy listening Dear Humans.

We'd love to hear from you!  Have a great week and  Happy Halloween!
