In this episode, we start by talking about our various tattoos and their symbolic meaning.

We get into many tangents from scholastic book fairs to random things kids do in band class. Stew shares about the impact his volleyball coach and band teacher had on him and the qualities that he hopes to be remembered for as an educator.
