Amrita and Andrew are ”platonic life partners,” artistic co-conspirators, and parents to a good baby. In 2024: Season 2 will reflect on one year of parenting as friends, and *lots* more. We will turn the lens to re-imagining the ways in which people relate to one another in the modern world: whether in family, community, partnership, or romance. Season 1 documented our path from friends to family as we decided to become parents. All the juicy backstory you could ask for. ”Season 0” is the first 41 episodes that preceded this over the years: foundational and central, fun and ridiculous. Without these episodes -- exploring freelancing, and living life off the beaten path -- there is no ”us.” Faced with making an unconventional choice that has the potential to bring you joy? Don’t Think Twice!
