Blanket Fort Books

Hi friends!! This is a crazy long, kind of niche episode - but well worth the listen we think! In this episode we talk all about the Mass Effect game series, Whitney and Gabe's favourite. We hard a lot to say, and have a really great time saying it.

Happy Holidays everyone!! In this week's episode, we are sadly missing Rachael as the holidays caught up to us too quickly, but Gabe and Whitney discuss some TV shows they've been into, A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens (ft Scrooge McDuck), and how to consume less and have a better carbon footprint around the holiday season! We hope everyone has a safe & happy end of 2020 :)
