Jan 04, 2024 Season 4 Episode 1

It's 2024 - A New Year, A New Start.

This is Have The Nerve Shorts - the short episodes between the long ones where we talk about things From The Internet, you can Get To Know Your Body and there might be even Something To Think About.

In this episode you are listening to Laura Burling, Jade Williams and Susan Wood answer the question: WIBTA for saying my girlfriend and I aren’t going to anime expo if she has to leave Monday and I have to leave Sunday?

As we read more into the predicament, we quickly find out that OP is trying to prevent his girlfriend from attending an out-of-state convention without him because of his fears and anxieties around her disability.
