  • Episode 73: Lymph Bizkit

    Hold onto your hats, because this week’s episode of Great Question with Mia and Kate is a wild mix of corporate call-outs and deep soul-searching.

    We’re kicking things off with a little sympathy for Kate, whose birthday sickness definitely wasn't on the wish list this year. From there, the conversation takes some sharp turns—we're talking font preferences (yes, we have opinions) and Verizon’s throttling practices are exposed. Plus, stay tuned for the moment the wheels completely fall off during Mia’s giggle fit - complete with snorts.

    The Little Question: If I were lost in a crowd, what sound would you make to find me?"

    The Big Question: If your life were a book, what would this current phase’s chapter title be, and what is its summation?

    Join us for an episode that’s equal parts tech-rant, birthday blues, and pure ridiculousness.

    What would your chapter title be? Listen in and let us know!
