In the first episode of Semi-Together, Melia and Gill talk about how they are making a fresh start with the podcast after a false start years before. They introduce Get It Together/Got It Together, a segment sharing something in their lives that needs work, and something that’s going well. Then they discuss how to avoid the sunk cost fallacy: wasting more time and energy when something's just not going to work.
