Welcome back, intrepid listeners!

We're back after a little hiatus, together in the bouncy room, with much conversation about coming home, the play "Primary Trust", the adventures of a junior year at college, music, goals, performing anxiety, being hard on yourself and the pursuit of perfection, witnessing excellence, the book "Burst" by Rachel Awes, the film "One Battle after Another", formulating a young life, what is the next best thing and... talking to a gerbil! Happy Fall, y'all!
