Here's a short teaser we recorded VERY on-the-spot. Shira had recently re-listened to our Great Saunter episode , sent it to Arielle. We then discussed it and realized we're rather proud of it (and the other episodes we published long ago). So hey, we hit the record button and this is the result. Are we actually funny? Who knows! Do we care? Not really. If you enjoy it, that's a great added bonus.…
