2021 is over! It’s hard to believe that because in a lot of ways it still feels like it’s 2020. But somehow, a whole year went by nonetheless. And, since the year is done, it’s time that we do what every podcast does… a year in review! But, if you’ve been listening the last couple of years, you know we don’t just review things on our year in review show. We don’t do a best of show. We certainly don’t recap what we’ve done on other episodes. Instead, we talk about things we DIDN’T talk about in the last year. So on this episode, Monica, Hannah, Katya, Wayne, and Mav get together to talk about our favorite media from the year that we DIDN’T talk before on the show. It’s not quite the best of… and it’s not even necessarily things that came out in 2021. It’s things WE consumed in 2021 that we think you should check out in 2022. This is Things You Missed! Or at least it’s things we think you missed. And WHY you should go back and check them out. So listen, and let us know if you did miss them and if we’ve inspired you to check some of them out. And, if you’ve got something important that WE missed and should check out, certainly let us know in the comment.

cooperhewitt.org/2021/10/04/wil… I’m watching the Willi Smith: On the record piece. Because there’s 12 things you mentioned in my wheelhouse, but the out there thing is what I start on 1st. I do appreciate clothes that you wouldn’t know how much they cost by just looking at them.
Very cool. Let us know how it is.
We needed a nap and missed the showing
