We're finally in 2021! And while we're keeping our expectations very low, we are thinking about things we can let go of in the new year. So our picks this week are all about what to hold on to, and what to let go.
Plus, the Broads are assessing our bad habits, considering what habits sound attractive, and reminding listeners to ignore all the stupid diet ads this week (and read our anti-diet reading list).
Listen to "Hold On," the song from H.E.R. that inspired this week's episode.
