A huge shout out to Jinhee for coming on and sharing some knowledge! Find Jinhee's INSTAGRAM HERE. Note: these episodes were meant to come out in the order we recorded them.

This is part 1 or our 7 part mini-series on COVID-19 asking people about their coronavirus experience. We've recorded our first remote episode due to COVID-19 and the stay-at-home order. The audio quality wasn't as good without our normal studio and this all felt very different, but we're very happy with how the episode turned out. Previous guest Scott came on to help us test this new system and share his COVID-19 experiences & observations. Listen to part 2 with Jinhee HERE. Find Scott in INSTAGRAM & TWITTER.

Emma, Jen, & Julia joined us to talk about the 2016 election. We talked about what people were thinking leading up to election night, how they felt when the results started rolling in, and what we should look ahead to.

Here's a short episode with just Min. In the episode he talks about what the Quality Under Pressure Podcast is doing during the COVID-19 crisis and he talks about his personal experience during these very strange times. A new episode is coming out later this week, so hopefully that'll provides some comfort while you're stuck a home. Finally, if we are able to setup a digital system we are hoping to do some virtual conversations while everyone is at home.

Dylan & Alex joined us a few days after Super Tuesday to talk about politics. We talked about the results and the future of the Democratic party. We also talked about what it's like to be a transplant in Minnesota. Find DYLAN ON INSTAGRAM HERE.
