Fragraphilia & Friends - Tracy Wan

In our first installment of Fragraphilia & Friends, we decide to bring in some high level sophistication, grace, and the ability the properly pronounce French words. We proudly welcome the wonderful Tracy Wan to the podcast.

Throughout the episode we discuss Tracy's backstory, her upbringing, perfume-y fruits and stinky food. We also bond over her affinity for gauzy lens cinema and our shared love of Hitchcock films.

Oh, and of course, she joins us for a pretty strong round of The Game. Watch out wantlist!

Remember, friends - "You already have a no, so you could have a yes"

If you don't already follow Tracy, which we're sure you do, we'll post these here just in case...
