About

Struggling to learn stuff every other week. There's a lot to figure out about the world but it can be hard (or embarrassing) to start from square one. We want to strip away the stigma of not knowing things and bring back the joy in learning. Join us as we take you on the journey from question to answer - showing every stumble and success along the way. We never fully know what we will find but when you start pulling on a thread, even the simplest questions unravel a whole world of curiosity. Answer In Progress is produced by Sabrina Cruz, Taha Khan, and Melissa Fernandes.
