Hi!
This episode was a tad more complicated to produce than usual, partly because I (Ana) was having major sound issues during our recording sessions. Since December, the best sound engineer we know in the pen community kindly helped us sort things out for our future episodes… though for this one, we thank you for your patience.
Thank you for listening!
