We talk about her transitions and address many of your wonderful questions. Those who wrote us with longer questions, fear not, we will get to them in our next episode!

Hello, good tidings to all you lovely folks out there. In this episode, Tran and Caleb stave off the political toxicity of the final presidential debate by answering your questions, emailed to us via SMTP to questions@polychat.org. We’ve finally caught up with our e-mail backlog, but I’m just discovering that our Tumblr “Ask us anything” inbox is quite full as well! So stay tuned for the next episode, we’ll get to those questions ASAP. And as one helpful commenter noted, we should probably move that link way up the page into a position of prominence. Consider that advice received and acknowledged!
