Hey everybody! I'm sharing a quick announcement in case you've noticed our release schedule getting a bit off lately and you don't follow us on any social media.
I was notified a few weeks ago that the role in my school district is being eliminated. That being the case, quite a bit of my time lately has been spent doing some searching, applying, etc., to new jobs. We're working to make sure we don't skip too much of a beat with getting new episodes out, but we wanted you to be aware of that little life update.
Be excellent to each other!

Is it a quirky anthem of teen freedom, or just a beautiful mess of a movie?
