A few years ago, Erica Heller realized how universal the longing is for one more moment with a lost loved one. It could be a parent, a sibling, a mentor, or a friend, but who wouldn't love the opportunity to sit down, break bread, and just talk?

Minimally Edited is a podcast with Chris, Eli, and Josh. We are three friends that just wanna catch up with each other every week. We talk about things we've spent a lot of time thinking about—stuff like making friends, becoming better conversationalists, AI art, and navigating relationships. We use many words to say very little. We make inside jokes and don't explain them. We don't really know what we're doing. https://minimallyedited.com

Signed on November 24, 1922, the Colorado River Compact is body of laws colloquially called the "Law of the River" that governs how human beings use water from the river system dubbed the "American Nile."

Attempting to navigate this "new normal," policymakers are negotiating new management rules for the river system, a process coinciding with the compact's centennial that must be completed by 2026.
