Breakthrough's back and better than ever! This week, we're getting down to the root of all our problems- application stress. We'll be talking about the most anxiety ridden topic- applying to universities, graduating high school, and applying to scholarships! Join in on the conversation as we not only talk about all that jazz, but also give you some advice as high schoolers AND debate on whether or not Amy sounds Australian.

Ah yes, the most dreaded day of the year (for some) and the most exciting day of the year (for others). This week we’re finally getting back to (in-person) school, so why not make an entire episode about it? This week, we talk about our major #regrets in high school, Vikasni’s existential crisis on how they’re not going to be able to get into their university of choice, piecing the dots, and why Harvard sucks. Listen now!

Note: Breakthrough will be changing its uploading schedule from once every week to biweekly uploads :)

We’re on Spotify for a reason! And all other platforms… but yes, this episode is All About Music! Tune in as our hosts discuss their tastes and what they’re listening to right now, as well as give each other recommendations based on each other’s tastes! As always, the two always get side tracked so if music isn’t your vibe, keep listening to hear Amy talk about how much she hates Lucifer (the show) and why Vikasni will never escape K-pop.
