MAAATES WE’RE BACK….again. Unfortunately, the podcast is not back…yet. BUT we wanted to talk about the year that has been, and the year to come, so….. In today’s episode, we’re talking everything 2025 by asking 25 questions about the year and the year to come 👀. This has easily been our biggest year running TheMaates, and also our biggest year personally. We delve into it all in this episode! Thank you so much for your support.
