Manage episode 375093904 series 3368732
Madison and Ben are excited to get philosophical with this week’s word which has a simple definition but a uniquely nuanced meaning, but first… what’s new with the hosts? Madison is reading American Dirt and Ben is playing Tango Gameworks’ “Ghostwire: Tokyo.” They take turns reflecting on what they are grateful for: experiences, trips, connections, books, and more. Before closing out the show, Madison teaches Ben about the “five love languages.”
