Hey all! We thought we would pop-on and give everyone an update. The podcast is going on a possible small hiatus. We've recently gotten to a point where mostly everyone in the group is busy with work and life outside of the podcast.

We're hoping to try and bring the show back to a consistent place in 2022. Taylor has been thinking of continuing the show, so we will not rule out the possibility of shows before the year ends, but circumstances have changed. We hope to be back at it soon!
