Conclusion
What projects are you currently working on?  
I have two things I try to maintain consistently: 
The Mormon Question of the Day: Weekday Polls on Twitter (so follow @Enos_Envy to add your vote)
Could be something simple like “What’s the scariest room in a ward building” 
or doctrinal “How many gods exist in Mormon theology”
The Aposties–the annual ExMo Awards on Twitter
I’ll be taking nominations starting in January and we have a panel of ExMos who select the winners which are announced each hour of April General Conference. 
We’d really like to host a live Aposties in person at a Chili’s someday–Cultch would have to handle the parody musical numbers.
Shout out to Jacob Hansen for winning 2022’s Mental Gymnast of the Year award. He took home the Fanny (our digital trophy is named after Fanny Alger). 
He’s sure trying hard to repeat in 2023, but the competition is FIERCE!
