Now That We're Quarantined LIVE... on Zoom

Well, *sigh*, things sure have changed since we last caught up with Anne, Caroline, Gale and Producer Lisann. Since O,Miami's annual April festival went O,nline, we gathered via Zoom at 3:05 PM on April 11th, 2020 for our first "live" episode of Now That We're Friends.

We went through a few listener questions about life in quarantine. We read our favorite isolation poems and played our go-to lonely jams. We speculated on how we'll react to each another once we're all out in the open again. And we talked about how we're essentially in a time portal right now.

So hop into the time portal that is this episode, where your new friends will great you on the other side with the best recs!
