Technically this episode isn’t part of the Late Winter Series, because there’s no special guest and it wasn’t scheduled, but here it is. It’s the Full Moon, and I’m in a mood.

We talk about dodgy energy-healing services, a little bit about Afghanistan, a little bit about climate, about people’s responses to the COVID-19 response, and more.
