A quick programming note for TWCR:

Moving forward, we're going to be reducing our publication cadence to twice a month. This is intended to allow us to put more care and attention into the show per episode and will make finding topics and guests easier for us. There may be times where we might do additional episodes in a given month, but two is all we will promise at this stage.

Thank you so much for listening!
