We talked about this in the episode: it's always nice to be able to do a positive story. I'm referring to the program showing promise, but also, these folks are a really good roommate match and that in itself is a lovely thing ☺️

Okin's book "Silent Voices" is a tough read. You get a sense for what people are going through, which is a tough reality to face. But what makes it weirdly harder is when folks in such dire straits are also deeply generous.

I'll be leaving the Chronicle soon. Like so many others, I'm trying to figure out where to step next in this fraught moment for media. Totally unclear where our craft is headed.
