Ep 8.5 - What Did Iroh Do? (Tea 101 Bonus Episode!)

As you may know, Ep 8 (Tea 101) was a whopper. Quite long. Believe it or not, our full conversation was much longer. 
While we are very proud of the completed episode, we were sad to see some parts go. So, we decided that we didn’t have to. This week we’re uploading a bonus episode (much shorter, we promise) from our conversation for Tea 101: What did Iroh do?
