Hello everyone! Today we had an amazing interview with the one... THE ONLY... MAYA! Maya is one of our close friends from school, and was such a great person to interview. We had a great conversation about so many insightful topics about what life is like for so many teens dealing with discrimination and mental health issues. We cover everything from balancing different cultures, growing up ethnic in the US, eating disorder, mental disorders, young relationships, and just life in high school. Enjoy!

PS (Sorry if the audio seems a little bumpy, the mic had to be handed around!)

Hey! Welcome back to another online episode, a chill topic today. Today we talk about conspiracy theories and basically the most popular and crazy ideas that have come up. I think, honestly, conspiracy theories are fun just to wonder and talk about and they really make you think, but they're nothing to take too seriously. We hope y'all enjoy!

Hey y'all! Today we decided to skip news updates and talk instead about an informational topic and a little bit of an intro into communism and what it is. Communism is a big part of our history and present and is very important to understand in order to know what's going on today with situations like Russia and Ukraine. We hope this episode was useful and cleared some things up! Enjoy!
