   Shenanigans

   Welcome to Good News Tea! Starting a new series of episodes that are just going to be casual conversation. These episodes will vary a lot and just be about what comes to mind while I'm talking. This style would be referred to as "ramble style" podcast episodes, and you are more than welcome to fall asleep or just put it on as background noise. Happy to be here with you! ~ Zee ~
