— I have 9 of 30 coaches recorded. I will be getting these processed this week and starting to publish episodes on July 18th! I usually need to ask a few times because I know coaches are busy with their personal and professional lives, but the July 4th “week” end put a delay on getting more submitted. It’s okay, though; I’m still excited for this season.
