In 2023, the podcast aired over 50 unique episodes, garnering more than 1.76 million downloads and ranking within the top 1% of most shared and followed podcasts globally. With the support of a $25,000 production grant from the organization, the podcast expanded its team by hiring two contracted employees to assist with audio production and special projects. The program also launched a new monthly digital zine series, written and designed in-house, to inspire listeners to delve deeper into the themes explored throughout the conversations.
