Thanks Carlissa for organizing this.

I thought this was an especially good audiobox, complete with the journal that we can follow along.
I'm asking our host carlissa if she will continue it around again and let us have an opportunity to join.
If anyone agrees, maybe you could help me lobby carlissa by PMing her.
