Well, things have gone pretty sideways, huh? All the systems for our lives that we've built over the years are out the window as we adjust to #QuarantineLife. This episode is theoretically about gender roles, but also about *gestures wildly at everything*.
Listeners, if you need anything, please don’t hesitate to shoot us an e-mail. Anna is available for video chats if your birth/postpartum/breastfeeding support system has been shaken down, and will help any organization that needs it get set up for remote meetings. Sara is, as always, super happy to help you figure out how to run games remotely, and has a seemingly endless supply of links and gifs available to distract and cheer you.
Cool Stuff
It was snowing at Anna’s house while we recorded this episode. That is not a cool thing, it is a cold thing, and Anna was pretty salty about it. Also, does Georgia have beaches?
