"Study Break" is back again

NPR
About this episode
Welcome (back) to How To Do Everything's "study break". This Friday at 12 PM CT, we will drop a Zoom link in this Google document. We use the same Google doc, so bookmark it if you would like. The first 10 (or 11?) people in the waiting room will be welcomed in, and we'll all hang out.

You can bring "how to" questions, you can bring fun facts about yourself, you can bring spirited debates. But if you try to argue that the cheese curd is a superior form of the mozzarella stick, Heena may blacklist you.

See you soon!
