You don't need to hear anything more about these unprecedented times, so we'll just say it: we did a show on zoom. A fantastic coast to coast lineup came together to hang and argue some silly debates. The Waking Windows festival in Vermont also featured this on their live stream, many thanks to them. We are doing another zoom show on June 5th at 9 EST/8 CST/6 PST. Follow us @argueandgrieve on all platforms to stay up to date.
