[WARNING: there are some chewing sounds from Adam’s weekly challenge from 54:45 - 55:27 and 56:27 - 56:45] Adam and Jordan are back with episode two of First Time For Everything!

(16:25) Adam then questions whether Jamie ever wanted to hire other people and work collaboratively, or if she wanted to be a one-person show.
