  • Ep. 013: Dead animals in freezers!? (w/ guests Marianne & Nancy)

    Welcome back, lovely listeners! Join us this week with our very special guests for this week: Marianne and Nancy. Gwen and Aisley met and became friends with Marianne in their undergrad, and Nancy is a friend of Aisley's who is also currently in the MACP program. This week's episode goes in many directions and takes a more light-hearted and fun approach. As always, we begin with check-ins and introductions of our guests. Gwen has a funny (maybe not-so-funny?) story to share with us, and it takes us on a conversation surrounding death and death practices... but in a fun way!!

    One of our lovely listeners sent in an advice request surrounding COVID and boundaries, and we share our thoughts and advice. Then we will play a game of funny Fact or Fiction (hosted by Gwen), where Aisley, Nancy, and Marianne will decide whether the statement is a fact or if it is made up. Always remember, human is human!

    Have a question or want advice? Please email us at: [email protected]

  • Ep. 012: Let's get to know each other better: 2 Truths 1 Lie
    Hello, lovely listeners! Join us this week for a fun and light-hearted episode. As always, we will have our check-in's and then Gwen is going to give everyone an update on her "guest" situation (see: Ep. 006: Forever Alone? Get a "guest"!). Then Aisley and Gwen will take turns playing 2 Truths 1 Lie. We thought this would be a fun way to get to know each other better, and for our listeners to get to know us a little more. 
    We would love to hear from you!
