Episode 17: Meet Whiskey!
I feel a little ridiculous even podcasting this week, as I have almost nothing to show or talk about. But, I wanted to say hello and introduce you to my new pup!
Please note- I am changing this podcast from weekly to bi-weekly for now. It may change back, especially this summer when I am on school vacation, but for now, I just don't have enough content for a weekly show. Thanks for understanding!
