53. What If: the Musical! (w/ Chris Kerrigan)

Lessons include: If you have something important to say, don't let yourself be silenced; be careful and use common sense in unfamiliar settings; rudeness seldom gets results.

A very special thanks to Chris Kerrigan, who wrote the musical numbers for this very special episode.  He writes music for grown-ups as Compassion Fatigue, and you can hear him on Apple, Spotify, and wherever you listen. 

This remastered classic first aired on November 13th, 2017.
