Close to 37.5% of small businesses in the US have failed to reopen due to the pandemic (The Economic Tracker, Harvard University). Kait and Jess provide a holiday shopping guide, but also provide a list of listener-supported and listener-submitted small businesses to support during these uncertain times. We also got a little distracted and exchanged some of our interesting "fainting" stories... listen until the end to catch our "ranting about rants" segment! Happy holidays!
