If you’re looking for some comfort amidst the chaos...you’ve come to the wrong place. We're very uncomfortable and we bet you are, too. In this episode, we go diving straight into the deep end of the giant dumpster fire that is our reality right now.

I don't know about you, but we can't seem to recover from the constant bombardment of unhinged, terrible news. Day in. Day out. And if you're feeling how we're feeling, we just wanted to say: It's okay to not be ok.

After reflecting on some historical moments that shook up our lives—from 9/11 to the reversal of Roe v. Wade—we finally settle in to talk about more current events and what we can do to avoid complacency and support our communities.
