[upbeat music] Hi, it's Helena. If you've listened to Creation Myth, I am so glad you did, and I've been happy to hear that I am not the only one who's tortured herself for decades with the kid question. There will be a new memoir soon on CBC's Personally called Discount Dave and The Fix. I'll tell you a little bit more about that later, but first, I wanna share a conversation that I had about the making of Creation Myth. It's a recording from a live show I did for On Air Fest with my fabulous colleague and friend, Avery Trufelman. I sat next to her on stage in a flamboyant red sequin vest and answered every one of her burning questions, and maybe yours, too.
