Happy new year, even if it’s not real! In this very special episode, Alice and Deanna discuss why they dislike punitive resolutions, whether consuming tubs of buttercream frosting is fine or problematic, whether you can fend off an attacker using tai chi, and (last but not least) Deanna’s epic response to a scandal in the social justice community.
