In this week's episode, we do something a little different. With help from our friends at Buzzfeed and Parade, we decided to test our knowledge on topics we didn't prepare for and do a full episode of trivia! Let us know how you did, hopefully, better than Martin.

We're Back! Are you ready? You better be because we are excited for Season 2. To start the season, we are recapping what we did over our month off, going over what we have coming up, and discussing the changes that have happened in our COVID Hellscape since we've been away. Clearly, we need to stop taking breaks. Everything descends into madness when we do.

Work and its importance to American culture has been a critical component for centuries. In this week's episode, we discuss how women's participation and access to the labor force has been impacted due to societal structures, COVID-19, and other policies that make it more difficult for women to get and stay involved in this critical part of American life.

Not many things have been fun in the past 16 months but one thing that has been for us in our time of need is TV. Since many of us have the opportunity to get vaccinated and move around more freely, we decided to take some time to reflect on the shows that brought us joy and kept us going in the past year or so.

The CDC said we can go without masks almost everywhere if we're vaccinated. We're allowed to travel if vaccinated. Life is starting to look normal and thinking about travel isn't just a crazy thought that may not happen for another year. It can happen today. In this week's episode, we talk about where we want to go when we have the time to travel this year because IT'S FINALLY POSSIBLE!

The pandemic has kept us apart for so long. Even though we are starting to get out and see each other in more normal circumstances, we had to take matters into our own hands and find companionship and love in other ways. What better ways are there than pets? So many of us have gotten pets in the past year, but what happens when we go back into the office or go back to school?  We talk about our thoughts on pets, whether we want one or not, and what may happen to them as we get back to normal.
