How to Play Poker with Ken Cheng 01.08.2023 35:55
Brilliant comedian and professional poker player Ken Cheng joins Stevie and Tessa to explain the extreme basics of poker as their nose's bleed.

Bonus Episode: How To Freeze Your Eggs - Part 2 18.05.2023 39:53
After recording part 1, Stevie was inspired to freeze her eggs and, perhaps unsurprisingly if you’ve heard Stevie talk about things on the podcast before, found the whole thing emotionally overwhelming.
