We talk about sabbath a lot here. For the next couple of weeks, our team is taking some much-needed time off and we wanted to invite you to take a little break and a moment of quiet, to rest too. And so, this week, rather than episodes on Monday and Thursday, we’d just like to invite you to rest, to take a podcast sabbath if you will, with us. There will be regularly scheduled episodes again next week, but for today and Thursday, let’s use the time we’d normally spend listening to That Sounds Fu...

Yes, friends, you read that right. Zachary Levi (AHEM...THE Zac Levi) is here to talk about his new book Radical Love . Did our entire office have a fangirl moment?? YES WE DID. Zac and I had a great conversation about mental health, being an enneagram 7 (we bonded), and so much more! Y'all, go out and grab yourself a copy of his new book! (And FYI, Zac uses a bit of stronger language, so let’s put a PG13 label on this one? May be best to listen without #miniBFFs in earshot.) . . . . Sign up to ...
