  • A Life #21: The Show After The Final One

    Things change in life. Sometimes it means that a show that has finished its run gets renewed. Such is the fate with A Life. We're back and we're going to continue the show every other week, pretending like nothing happened.

    In this episode we're talking about shades of being out and how hard it is at times to manage who knows what and how much. Another complication comes into the topic if one is romantic and happens to be in a homoromantic relationship.

    We're also looking for new people to join the show, so feel free to contact us. Details can be heard on the show.

  • A Life #20: Final Episode

    Yes, it's true. Unfortunately production and real life issues mounted too much to keep the show going, so this will indeed be the last time the A Life Team gathers to talk about everything asexual. In the final show, we go over the remaining feedback, go over some random issues and explain our reasons for quitting the show.

    We'd like to thank everyone who participated in the show by sending comments and contributing in any way. And naturally a special thanks goes out to everyone who listened to the show.
