In our sophomore episode, we bring you some updates on what's in the works for HxA Columbia, riff about the recent presidential debate, and bad-mouth consultants while praising phonics (what can I say? I'm hooked!). We've also added a new segment where we recommend books and articles to add to your reading list. Also, you might be wondering why episode 2 took so long. Well, that comes down to the fact that we started this podcast with no plan whatsoever.... but we've finally gotten our act together!From now on, you can expect a new episode every Monday.Also, you'll notice that we've added theme music. Let us know what you think! The articles we mention are....* Biden Officials Pushed to Remove Age Limits for Trans Surgery, Documents Show* DEI programs toppled amid a surge of conservative lawsuits* A Wife’s Revenge from Beyond the Grave...and the books...* Lakota America: A New History of Indigenous Power by Pekka Hämäläinen * Skeletons on the Zahara: A True Story of Survival by Dean King * The Case for Colonialism by Bruce Gilley * The Psychology of Revolution by Fathali M. Moghaddam CORRECTION: At some point in the episode, Anthony used the word "endogenously" when he meant to use the word "exogenously" when referring to hormone therapy.
