Congrats on the 40+ listeners! Hi mom

Thought Provoking and Humorous

This podcast will make you reexamine your assumptions with a critical eye and this podcast will also make you laugh. It is a candid conversation between two highly educated individuals who are also down-to-earth. COVID-19 has brought out the best and the worst in humanity. Thankfully, it has brought out the best in this podcast.
