Jules and Sean reflect on 2021 and all the friends we made along the way. We cut straight to some of the aftermath of the Jan 6 riot at the capitol, just how vaxxed the US is at the moment, and why shitty employers can’t find workers. We end with some inspiration from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr’s about the “white moderate” from his letter from Birmingham jail and our Wetwired Podcast resolutions and good wishes for 2022.
