    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    It's been awhile, but we're back...kinda. With Ken still mostly out of commission due to his recent knee surgery, we managed to squeeze in a quick recording to get a little bit of his response to what has been going on.

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Unfortunately, Ken was having some technical difficulties. We will be posting more parts to continue explaining what's going on. In the meantime, Cristal will speak to the events at the June branch meeting which, in our opinion, is where the first domino of all this got pushed over.
