Our annual post-Burn decompression

Arash and Halcyon spend a bunch of time not talking about Burning Man since Halcyon is usually busy with Pink Heart stuff and Arash had to leave the Burn early due to a medical emergency. But they do talk about some of the art and topics of community interest when they’re not detouring into their personal Burning Man and general life journeys.
