It's hard to believe, but this is the last episode of season two! Jeff and Ryan take a short walk down memory lane from season two and give a look ahead to what season three holds. NOTE: At the time of this recording there was one additional episode that would have come out before this one. Due to unforeseen circumstances, that episode isn't available. So the guys refer to 15 episodes in season two, but there are actually only 14. Not to worry though that "lost episode" will air in season 3!
Join the guys today as they discuss what is and what isn't a good definition of "safe people." This term and topic is tricky and it is very much a "buzz" word these days, so the guys provide some helpful definitions and ideas when considering how you select a "safe" person to talk to but also how yourself should function as a "safe" person for others.

Well there is! Come find out about it on today's episode.
