Welcome to Feathers My Hair, a teen mom deep dive podcast. I'm your host, Liz Bentley.

Hey, everyone. Well, first of all, my voice sounds crazy because I just woke up. I slept in to

and found out that my, the episode that I uploaded yesterday afternoon was a corrupted file.

I have no fucking idea how it happened.

It was like skipping.

It was clearly not doing that when I was like doing my little editing and finishing everything up. Something happened when I

uploaded it from the recording program I used to my computer. I'm not very happy. I'm not feeling

very happy about this. So I decided, I mean, first of all, i considered just not putting out an episode you know i was

like well maybe i just don't put out an episode because i'm fucking mad but then i decided well i guess

i don't know i have the energy right now spend an'll spend an hour of recording. I'll go for a walk. It will be okay.

It's just obviously extremely frustrating when something like this happens. This is only the second time that I've really like lost a whole episode.

The first time I didn't re-record. If you'll remember, that was like

after McKenzie McKee's mom died. And I like cried throughout the episode and then was like, I can

never talk about that again. But here we are. Oh, thank you so much to everybody who donated

to Operation Santa. We raised over $5,000. I appreciate it so much. I love doing this

every year. If you want to see the full accounting and like pictures of all the wrap presents,

you can follow me on Instagram at Feathers underscore pod. I posted the final results there. But yeah, thank you all so much to everybody donated.

This is the final episode of this season, although it did end with a to be continued message,

but like, that's just a season finale. Like, I don't know. I'm confused because it is a reunion next week.

So I'm not sure like what to be continued means in this context.

But because it is the finale, I figured I would just recap this.

Then I can go into throwbacks.
