Hello, and welcome back to Practicing Human, the podcast where every day we're getting

I'm your host, Cory Muscarra, and in today's episode we are going to talk about how if

More to come on that in a moment, but first it is 2BELL 2's day, yes, everyone's favorite

Why?

Because we get 2BELLs instead of the usual one.

So in a moment, I am going to grace your ears with the velvety, luscious sound of a meditation

bell, and you're not going to get it just once, but you're going to get it twice.

until that second bell dissolves all the way back into silence.

Here it comes.

Thank you to 2BELL 2's day.

A bit of background into why that's a point of contention.
