the other is called "the faucet" where i just mostly turn it on and spout off a stream of consciousness on my own mainly but sometimes i invite a co-faucet friend, usually the wonderful liz glazer. (https://faucet.libsyn.com/)
if you'd like, i can recommend specific fun ones to check out!

I LOVE ANSWERING QUESTIONS. (do i love answering questions? i do!)
hey bud, how's your listening going? have you done all this homework yet and want more? have you done none and want less? have you done some and it's just right? do you see yourself more as goldilocks or more as some number of bears? love!
I'll be plum honest with you and say that i have shame in my heart for how little of the listening I've done. I downloaded some on my app (downcast) but SOME I COULDNT FIND like they didn't show up and THAT made me mad and sort of abandon podcasts entirely for a bit.
