Welcome back to another episode of Uncork & Unwind! We are back after a week of silence to uplift the voices in the Black and Trans communities. We stand in solidarity with these communities and will continue to advocate for their protection.
In today's episode, we play Questions With Friends and we answer some fun questions on behalf of ourselves and one another. What would we be arrested for? Do we like surprises? Who would play us in the movie about our lives?
