You go down that hallway and I’ll go down this one. You want to split the party? Is that a good idea? Well, Ang, Thomas, and Chris are here to tell you why it is, some tips for how to do it well, and the places you might not want to get things all separated.

This post is brought to you by our wonderful patron Sam Gorton, supporting us since August 2016! Thanks for helping us keep the stew fires going!
