Episode Synopsis "Family is Essential"

...but what is family, and how does it play an essential role in our lives? In this mostly free-flowing episode, we begin a conversation on what family is and where its impact and importance lies. From start to finish, we reflect on our own experiences - wholesome, funny, and more - and in sharing with each other, gradually realize the nuances and limitations of traditional concepts as we've known them. We leave the conversation not having discovered definitions or concrete conclusions, but rather having explored each others' and our own viewpoints on family.
