So not to put too much pressure on us or you, dear listener, but this episode is the reason Anne and Hannah decided to start a podcast. It is the reason they became close friends and it is the reason they will continue doing this podcast well into their 90s. After all, some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them. Wait, that doesn't apply -- like, even a little bit.
