Day 16 in the books! Andrea is back serving tea. Sounds include an audio collage and singing from Bryna Raanan and Ellery Harper, respectively.

Let me know what you think of this episode.

SPEAKER_00

Okay. Day 16.

SPEAKER_06

30 days of free tea in Mary Hernandez party. Day 16.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, day 16. How are we feeling?

SPEAKER_03

Feel pretty good. Yesterday I I did this thing where I like accidentally left my phone at home and I was here the whole day. I I noticed the birds chirping a lot more. I noticed the the flowers falling from the trees. Um conversations had from afar. And how much we we long for closeness.

SPEAKER_04

Ready to go. I'm standing here outside your door. I hate to wake you up to say goodbye. But the dawn is breaking, it's along. Taxis win, his blow is home. Already I'm so I could cry.

SPEAKER_03

See people on their phones, and it's because they feel alone. And you feel like yesterday you got the closeness you were wanting? So much so that I wanted to just be quiet at the end of the day.

SPEAKER_01

I think this space like drops people's guards. Sometimes random shit happens that then sparks people to connect with each other because it's like, oh right, like we're all just fucking people.

SPEAKER_04

Why do you keep coming back?

SPEAKER_02

One thing is is for the tea, but there's another thing that's cause I like to uh like I I don't know, I feel like I need to speak from my heart when I come here and it feels and it feels good.

SPEAKER_05

I moved here yesterday. Thank you.

SPEAKER_01

I feel like a lot of days I stress about what am I gonna do today? And it's really easy to know that there's just a place to go. Always.

SPEAKER_06

Well the older folks have church and the younger kids are in school, and then we're just kinda out here floating in it all.

SPEAKER_00

And like I realize like the way you like interact with people is hard to get back to you. And like I feel like that is prayer.

SPEAKER_02

I feel like God is everywhere.

SPEAKER_05

Where where do you see God?

SPEAKER_02

Everywhere, like like right now, like God is speaking through you right now, asking me those these questions. I see God and people. Somebody will say something that I I kinda needed to hear. God is everywhere, like you hear him, you see him, but like it's not like you hear him and see him in like a very direct way. It's like all like a puzzle.

SPEAKER_03

I didn't do the camera. Okay, should we hit it?

SPEAKER_05

Oh, yeah.
