2020. The dumpster fire of a year is finally over. And while 2021 isn't off to a great start, at least we can finally move on. Now, it's easy to think that it was all doom and gloom for the past twelve months, but there were some good things that happened. So as a bonus, in-between seasons episode, we managed to scrape together a top 5 list of good things that happened in 2020. We cover everything from spicy textbooks and warm cinnamon sugar donuts to oil spills and apples with nacho cheese. Enjoy! We'll be back with season three at some point in 2021 (see, this years looking better already!) If you have an idea for a future top 5 list you would like us to do, or if you would like to be a guest on a future episode (hope you have a flexible schedule!) send us a message on our Facebook page at Facebook.com/T5Podcast
