Day 24

Bye bye Bernie.

I heard the news this morning that Bernie dropped out of the presidential race, which was hard. I have been extremely involved in the “Bernie movement” since before he initially launched his 2016 campaign, and have never really stopped. On the bright side, I had contact with a decent amount of Bernie folks today… so things felt less lonely.

I decided to record another episode of the “Day 15” podcast today, because a bunch of my fellow Bernie supporters left messages about how they were feeling in light of his announcement (you can leave me a message too at: anchor.fm/theshanaeast — just click on the “Message” button). You can listen to today’s podcast episode here.
