Summary
Dear Pennies & Pallers,
In this week’s first letter, a Pen Pal (who may or may not know our names) expresses concern for the wellbeing of our planet - and looks for any tips on how to ward off existential dread.
In our second letter, we are asked if a person’s favorite television show can be a red flag.
We also discuss: our new PO Box, climate change, the reality show “Alone”, and identifying with Richard Drefyuss in "Stand by Me".

We wish you well, sincerely,
Your Pen Pals Daniel Van Kirk & Rory Scovel
