I think the way you spoke about this topic was amazing and a lot of people stay away from this topic because they are scared of discussing it, so I liked how you guys approached it head on. I think that the way you presented with facts was a really good idea. Overall the idea of removing stigmas for this episode was very well executed and you guys did a great job!
