Hank and John Green answer various listener questions about life, media, and writing.

Why is the healing process always so itchy? Why are the acknowledgements usually cut out of audio books? How do I find time for writing as a busy and exhausted parent? When you look out an airplane window, why don’t the clouds look like they’re going by fast? How do I keep loving the media I love when it is being criticized online? …Hank and John Green have answers!
