Happy Monday, friends! Welcome back to another episode, where we start by rehashing some recent fun Patreon bonus content. Then, we're getting into a fun fishbowl question (submitted by Kerry the fish - thanks, Kerry!) all about our very first memories. Find out who buried their trauma and who remembers it vividly.
