S02E02: A Beat You Can Dance To

The catch up episode after a year-long hiatus.  Overall, a very catch-all episode.  Andrew talks about why he doesn’t even know what to do with his future anymore, Jonathan talks about his first two quarters in grad school and TAing, Peter goes back to basics.  Everyone (except Andrew) soapboxes a little bit.
