Hey folks a few things.
1. Let’s pick up Thursday, December 4th @ 9:15pm Eastern for a new live session.
2. A new episode of Comedically Hardheaded drops December 16th.
3. I’m in the process of putting together the next “So What Happened” episode. If I’m a little MIA the last two weeks of December it’s because I’m trying to have the next episode ready in the coming weeks. My brain’s already tired tackling this one. I’ll let you all guess who the next one is about.
4. The book club will wrap Monday, December 8th at 8pm Eastern. We’re covering chapter 7 & 8 of Mehrsa Baradaran’s “The Color of Money”. You can use the link below to access the book club.
