    S2 EP3 Why we abandoned the show (and you) for 3 years

    19/11/2024 | 15 mins.
    Welcome to Episode 3, the recap episode, of this current season of the YIA Podcast!

    This week Daveaux (Dave-O) and Brett take the opportunity to explain why we abandoned you for those long years and what led us to come back now. We also take this opportunity to talk about a concept we keep coming back to: normalizing normal, how our real lives aren't actually that interesting... and that's great!

    Welcome to episode 7 of the YIA Podcast!

    Today, we discuss the different masks adoptees tend to wear and why they wear them. There are 6 stuck spots laid out in the book Beneath The Mask that we discuss and the different ages we dealt with them. Also, it's almost Halloween so we found this fitting.
