It's time to CATCH UP. It's been about a year since our world was drastically shifted and altered. After all that we collectively faced in 2020, it feels good to be on the other side (or ALMOST). Hindsight may just be 2021.
On this episode, Chid discusses the films,Judas and the Black Messiah and Malcolm and Marie as well as shares some new music for the Clue In Segment. For the Main Segment, Chid has some things to share and get off her chest with regards to coping and having a healthy 2021. This includes managing expectations, using social media appropriately and leaning into friendships when that feeling of loneliness sets in.
