Over on Patreon...

Over on our Patreon, our Patrons got an extra behind-the-scenes look at Never Fear, Shakespeare, the play Elyse and her husband wrote. Kourtney took a trip up to Sacramento to catch the play and shared her impressions on the family-friendly show (and her appreciation of how our research from the podcast appeared throughout the show).
