Congrats, we made it to another weekend! Tre’vell Anderson and Jarrett Hill, co-hosts of the FANTI podcast, join us to solve the mystery of how to correctly pronounce Omicron. We also unpack the Spotify “Wrapped” trend with three of the only people on Earth who don’t use Spotify and muse about what it would be like to get stuck in a British pub for three days.

Then, we talk to Grace Bonney, founder of the website Design*Sponge, about Collective Wisdom: Lessons, Inspiration, and Advice from Women over 50. In this beautiful new book, Bonney profiles over 100 trailblazing women, ranging from an Olympic athlete to a National Park Ranger to a group of quilt makers. We’ll hear how one of those women, border scholar and writer Norma Cantú, is reflecting on aging.
