Both Trinity-Pawling and Windward use a modified Orton-Gillingham approach to make academic content accessible to students. The programs are designed to challenge and motivate students, equipping them with the skills and confidence they need to succeed while reaching their highest potential.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Just ask Matt Bologna \u201919, Henry Daniel \u201920, Rodger Ecker \u201920, and Nick Grande \u201919. These four Trinity-Pawling students graduated from the Windward School before joining the Pride. All stellar students \u2014 in and out of the classroom \u2014 the boys know the immeasurable value of these individualized academic programs.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe transition to Trinity-Pawling from Windward was smooth and it all has to do with the LEAD Program,\u201d shared Henry Daniel \u201920, who started at the School as a freshman in 2016. \u201cThey use the Orton-Gillingham teaching method, just like Windward.\u201d Rodger Ecker \u201920 agreed, \u201cThe LEAD Program is a great bridge from one school to the other. It provided extra reading and writing support and the small class sizes made the transition much easier.\u201d  <\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Both Trinity-Pawling and Windward pride themselves on providing dynamic learning environments that empower their students to truly excel. The small classes allow teachers to recognize the individual learning needs of each student and find the academic strategies that work best. \u201cMost importantly, at Windward and here at T-P, I\u2019ve learned to advocate for myself,\u201d shared Ecker \u2014 certainly a valuable life skill.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Roberta Lidl, Director of the Center for Learning Achievement sees the success of students from Windward firsthand. &#8220;Our boys from Windward arrive with a well-developed academic toolbox and a robust understanding of their learning style, which seamlessly dovetails into Trinity-Pawling\u2019s LEAD program,\u201d she shared. \u201cTheir resiliency and grit are developed brick by brick\u2026Matt, Henry, Rodger, and Nick brilliantly demonstrate these qualities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>According to Daniel and Ecker, the greatest strength of Trinity-Pawling\u2019s LEAD Program \u2014 and all the academic departments \u2014 is the attentive and supportive teaching staff. \u201cThe teachers at T-P are available, accessible, and committed to our success,\u201d said Ecker. \u201cThey always make time for me and really care about how I\u2019m doing in class and at school in general.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWithout my learning experiences at both Windward and Trinity-Pawling, I would not be the student or person that I am today,\u201d Daniel concluded confidently.

Currently in a paid internship at the NYC-based PR firm BerlinRosen, Vataj handles six accounts, mostly real estate, managing their day-to-day media. His work includes writing press releases, pitching stories to media outlets, and monitoring the media for any mentions of clients.  <\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s exciting work and the culture is fantastic! I didn\u2019t have a background in real estate PR before coming to BR, but have really enjoyed it.  It\u2019s an area I\u2019d like to explore further,\u201d comments Vataj.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>To be sure, his current work is a definite shift from previous career endeavors, which were focused solely in the political arena. A recent graduate of Saint Anselm College with a BA in political science, Vataj had devoted much of his time interning in local, state, and national government.  His resume boasts experience in the offices of the New York State Attorney General, the US Senate office of New Hampshire Senator Jeanne Shaheen, and in his junior year, a 5-month full-time internship in the Washington, D.C. office of Senator Chuck Schumer.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy time on the Hill was definitely a high point for me. I was able to see firsthand how a congressional office is run \u2014 with responsibilities that involved everything from attending committee meetings, to lobbying for specific agendas, to constituent outreach. It was truly a capstone experience in my college career,\u201d Vataj explained. <\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Although he continued to pursue politics right out of college (Vataj\u2019s first \u201creal job\u201d last summer, was to run the campaign finance portfolio for New Hampshire Secretary of State candidate Colin Van Ostern), he was beginning to feel a call to other pursuits, which led him directly to New York City and BerlinRosen. While Vataj does have one client in the political arena, his real estate accounts comprise the bulk of his workload, and he is glad for the expansion in his skillset and experience.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>When asked about Trinity-Pawling, Vataj states: \u201cMy time at the School has influenced every single aspect of my college and work experience. I give all credit to Trinity-Pawling, and to Mr. Mead, who ignited my love of government.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Godspeed Zef, as you race onward in your career!

Each year, the Memory Project partners with different artists around the world to create portraits for children who have faced hardship, such as violence, war, extreme poverty, and natural disasters. Since its founding in 2004, the organization has delivered over 130,000 portraits to children in 47 different countries.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>During the Winter Term, four Trinity-Pawling students partnered with the Memory Project for their Winter Project. Toby Berner \u201921, Seong Jun \u201cSean\u201d Kim \u201923, Mitch Lukas \u201919, and Zeyu \u201cSony\u201d Wang \u201923 created portraits from photographs of Syrian refugee children. The project combined three disciplines: visual art, language (Arabic), and history\/current events. <\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe project was much more than an artistic venture,\u201d shared Ramsay Antonio-Barnes, one of the faculty advisors on the Memory Project. \u201cStudents were introduced to advanced drawing techniques and honed new skills to create their portraits of the children. They also researched the Syrian conflict to better understand the ongoing refugee crisis that these children and their families are living.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>During their research, the group learned that the children in the photographs speak a specific dialect of Arabic. \u201cIt just so happened that one of our current seniors, Huma Bekhiet, speaks that same dialect at home in Egypt,\u201d shared Antonio-Barnes. \u201cI invited Huma into the group to help us with translations. After completing their portraits, the boys wrote messages in Arabic to the children.\u201d <\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Earlier this month, the finished portraits were successfully delivered to the children in a refugee camp in Syria. \u201cThey absolutely loved them!\u201d shared Rose Franz, Outreach Director for the Memory Project, in a letter to the Winter Project group. \u201cThe children were so excited to receive your artwork and very touched by your efforts. Thank you for helping us to grow international friendship and kindness through the arts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>For Berner, Kim, Lukas, and Wang, their experience with the Memory Project was eye-opening. \u201cI learned the importance of simple gifts,\u201d shared Berner. \u201cI tried to imagine Kinan, many miles away in a very different place from safe little Pawling, opening his portrait, and how excited he might have been to see it. It makes me feel good knowing that my hard work made him smile and gave him something to hold onto.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Every child who receives a portrait through the Memory Project has a different story. The common thread is their courage and resilience through adversity. By creating portraits for the children, Berner, Kim, Lukas, and Wang used their artistic talents to show support and honor the children\u2019s strength. Perhaps most importantly, the project helped to build their sense of empathy and create meaningful, cross-cultural connections. <\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe project was a personal experience for the students \u2014 one that opened their hearts to the bigger world out there,\u201d Antonio-Barnes concluded. \u201cThe willingness to share their talents to spread joy, positivity, and good will so that others feel valued is an experience that the boys can continue to build on. Those feelings will stay with them for years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Watch a <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"thank you video (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/memoryproject.box.com\/RamsayAntonio-Barnes\" target=\"_blank\">than<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/hwOALtMrmM4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"k you video (opens in a new tab)\">k you video<\/a> from the Memory Project<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><em>by<\/em> <em>Emma Christiantelli<\/em><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n        <\/div><!-- .entry-summary -->\n      <div class=\"subtitle\">CREATING PORTRAITS FOR A KINDER WORLD<\/div>\n    <\/div><!-- .wc-shortcodes-post-content -->\n  <\/div><!-- .wc-shortcodes-post-border -->\n<\/div><!-- #post -->\n<!-- Post -->\n<div id=\"post-2845\" class=\"wc-shortcodes-filter-april-2019 wc-shortcodes-post-box post-2845 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-april-2019\">\n  <div class=\"wc-shortcodes-post-border\">\n          <div class=\"wc-shortcodes-entry-thumbnail\">\n        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/trinitypawlingthequad.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/TRINITY-PAWLING-LACROSSE-2019.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-post-image\" alt=\"Trinity-Pawling Lacrosse\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trinitypawlingthequad.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/TRINITY-PAWLING-LACROSSE-2019.jpg 600w, https:\/\/trinitypawlingthequad.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/TRINITY-PAWLING-LACROSSE-2019-512x341.jpg 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/>      <\/div>\n    \n    <div class=\"wc-shortcodes-post-content\">\n              <div class=\"wc-shortcodes-entry-header\">\n          <h2 class=\"wc-shortcodes-entry-title\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/trinitypawlingthequad.org\/?p=2845\" rel=\"bookmark\">PRIDE ATHLETICS ROUNDUP<\/a>\n          <\/h2>\n\n          <div class=\"readmore\">\n            <span class=\"leermas\"><a href=\"#\">Read More<\/a> &raquo;<\/span>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/div><!-- .entry-header -->\n              <div class=\"wc-shortcodes-entry-content\">\n          <p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><strong>VARSITY LACROSSE<\/strong><br \/>The Pride is off to a 5-3 start in the regular season.

The team is led by Seamus Balistreri \u201922, Budd Desir \u201920, and Kai Solik \u201921 on the offensive side. Captain Tyler Marma \u201919 and goalie Mikey O&#8217;Rourke \u201922 anchor the defense. The team has shown signs of improvement throughout the year and will look to achieve more success in May.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><strong>VARSITY BASEBALL<\/strong><br \/>The varsity baseball team began the regular season at 3-3. Second baseman Julian Uejima \u201920 leads the offense with 12 hits and 7 stolen bases in front of slugger Luke Shliger \u201920\u2019s two home runs and team-leading .524 average. Sophomore outfielder Kyle Stober \u201921 has shown off his young talent with an astonishing .636 on-base-percentage, while senior Will Rickert leads on and off the field. Connor Harris \u201919 shines on the mound, throwing 22 \u2153 innings on the season with 33 strikeouts while giving up just 10 earned runs. Jonathan Link \u201921 and Nick Selden \u201920 offer consistent support from the bullpen and have recorded one start each. The team has been flexible during a rainy April and will look to make up some postponed games on Mondays in May. Smith Field House offers a comprehensive outdoor practice alternative with a bullpen and indoor batting cage so the boys can stay prepared on wet days. This week is crucial for the team as they take on boys school rivals Salisbury and Avon Old Farms.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><strong>JV BASEBALL<\/strong> <br \/> The JV baseball team will focus on improving as a team in the second half of the season. Tucker Webb \u201922 has found success as a pitcher and dominates at the plate. Seniors Nolan Laplante, Christian Keyes, and AJ O\u2019Buck are leaders of an otherwise young lineup.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><strong>VARSITY TENNIS <\/strong><br \/>Minimal experience has hurt varsity tennis thus far, and our results highlight the difficulties of having a young squad. Despite some struggles, Henry Daniel \u201920 and Andrew Zhang \u201920 have shown great leadership and a strong desire to improve. Tommy Li \u201921 has worked hard every day to grow into a competitive player, while Henry Bi \u201919 and Henry Hatfield \u201920 have united to form a strong doubles tandem.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><strong>JV TENNIS<\/strong><br \/>This spring a number of JV players have made strides in serving, hitting, and resiliency in the challenging mental game of tennis. Standout singles player Henry Hopkins \u201922 leads the team, with great contributions from Nick Szymanski \u201920, Thomas Solecki \u201920, David O\u2019Keefe \u201920, Griffin Fluehr \u201920, and Nico Mooney \u201920.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><strong>THIRDS TENNIS<\/strong> <br \/>The thirds tennis squad has had two matches and two rainouts so far, with Oliver Shao \u201922, Ken Lee \u201920, Nolan Maclear \u201921, and Whit Hazlewood \u201921 leading the way. The team will continue to improve during the rest of the season, with sights on JV play next year.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><strong>VARSITY GOLF<\/strong> <br \/>The golf team is improving through the early stages of its season. Despite having only 3 competition days so far, the team is working hard to improve play around the greens in order to become more competitive in matches. Max Levine \u201919 has been the team&#8217;s low scorer in each match, earning co-medalist honors against Hopkins. Others making strides are Jack Musa \u201922, Phip Waugh \u201919, and Shjon Whitehead \u201919 while the return of Jake Aloi \u201921 and Peter Meng \u201919 to the lineup has had an immediate impact on the team&#8217;s performance. Now the season gets busy with two or three competitions per week in May.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><strong>JV GOLF<\/strong> <br \/>Every member of the JV golf squad competed in their first-ever golf match at Bull\u2019s Bridge in April. Mark Trainor \u201919 shot the best score of the day, while Shane Murphy \u201919 and Cal Hade \u201920 also competed well. The boys have one more match before the end of the season.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><strong>TRACK &amp; FIELD<\/strong>   <br \/>After four meets, members of the Pride track &amp; field team have showed their prowess in a number of competitions. The boys have been particularly successful in the field events, with Captain Eddie Gonzalez \u201919 and Jude Buchanan \u201922 medaling in their discus competitions and Liam Dietrich \u201921 medaling in his shot put throws. Joey Musa \u201919 has had success in javelin and sprinting, while captain Taylor Ewing \u201920 brings infectious positivity every day. Freshman Marcus Duell has delighted as a newcomer of the year in pole vault, while fellow first-year Kyle Lee \u201922 has improved as a sprinter. The team will compete in the Founder\u2019s meet at Hotchkiss on May 11th, with one more home meet on the 15th of May before New England\u2019s the following weekend.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><em>by Cyrus Rothwell-Ferraris<\/em><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n        <\/div><!-- .entry-summary -->\n      <div class=\"subtitle\">ROLL PRIDE!<\/div>\n    <\/div><!-- .wc-shortcodes-post-content -->\n  <\/div><!-- .wc-shortcodes-post-border -->\n<\/div><!-- #post -->\n<!-- Post -->\n<div id=\"post-2841\" class=\"wc-shortcodes-filter-april-2019 wc-shortcodes-post-box post-2841 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-april-2019\">\n  <div class=\"wc-shortcodes-post-border\">\n          <div class=\"wc-shortcodes-entry-thumbnail\">\n        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/trinitypawlingthequad.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Trinity-Pawling-students.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-post-image\" alt=\"Trinity-Pawling students walking on the Quad\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trinitypawlingthequad.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Trinity-Pawling-students.jpg 600w, https:\/\/trinitypawlingthequad.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Trinity-Pawling-students-512x341.jpg 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/>      <\/div>\n    \n    <div class=\"wc-shortcodes-post-content\">\n              <div class=\"wc-shortcodes-entry-header\">\n          <h2 class=\"wc-shortcodes-entry-title\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/trinitypawlingthequad.org\/?p=2841\" rel=\"bookmark\">THE CHALLENGES CONFRONTING BOYS IN TODAY\u2019S WORLD<\/a>\n          <\/h2>\n\n          <div class=\"readmore\">\n            <span class=\"leermas\"><a href=\"#\">Read More<\/a> &raquo;<\/span>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/div><!-- .entry-header -->\n              <div class=\"wc-shortcodes-entry-content\">\n          <p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>As an all-boys school, Trinity-Pawling has a unique opportunity to embrace the challenges confronting boys in today\u2019s world and guide our students in becoming ethical citizens.

Ms. Koestner is the Executive Director of Campus Outreach Services, which she founded in 1994 to educate schools about best practices in prevention of sexual misconduct, bullying, alcohol abuse, and other student safety issues. <\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>\u201cKatie Koestner brought top-notch co-presenters to discuss affirmative consent with the group, which gathered from 12 nearby schools. It was a truly compelling exercise that showed the crucial role we can be playing in educating our young men. Although we don&#8217;t have the daily issues a coed school faces, investing time and energy into this topic should be a top priority to help our students be responsible future adults, and I&#8217;d argue an all-male environment is an ideal one to bring these topics to light,\u201d said Amy Foster, Director of Gardiner Library and Learning Commons.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Several area schools were invited to join in the one-day institute at Trinity-Pawling, which focused on best practices to proactively address sexual misconduct issues. The leadership training program featured interactive case studies that encouraged attendees to engage in discussions with colleagues and student peers. \u201cProbably the biggest key that stuck out to me was that you always have to be mindful of what other people are comfortable with. Even if you\u2019re comfortable with something as simple as a hug, ask the other party if they consent to it,\u201d said Solomon Hess \u201920.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>The training and resources were presented by nationally known subject matter experts on law, policy, and communications and were presented to student and faculty groups separately. \u201cThe school administrators broke off to the Alumni Room where we focused more specifically on policies and procedures to be included in school documentation,\u201d added Foster.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>All participants worked on building the skills, knowledge, and ability to educate and impact their own school communities on respectful relationships and sexual misconduct. \u201cIt was a very powerful workshop. It was great to watch the students fully participate and engage in the activities. The presenters in the adminstrator workshop provided participants with excellent suggestions and tools on how schools can improve and enhance their existing policies and procedures,\u201d said Laurie DeBalzo, Director of Human Resources.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Trinity-Pawling School continues to incorporate initiatives which aim to prepare our students for life beyond Trinity-Pawling. <\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n        <\/div><!-- .entry-summary -->\n      <div class=\"subtitle\">RESPECT MY RED INSTITUTE PRESENTS POWERFUL WORKSHOP<\/div>\n    <\/div><!-- .wc-shortcodes-post-content -->\n  <\/div><!-- .wc-shortcodes-post-border -->\n<\/div><!-- #post -->\n<!-- Post -->\n<div id=\"post-2849\" class=\"wc-shortcodes-filter-april-2019 wc-shortcodes-filter-august-2019 wc-shortcodes-post-box post-2849 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-april-2019 category-august-2019\">\n  <div class=\"wc-shortcodes-post-border\">\n          <div class=\"wc-shortcodes-entry-thumbnail\">\n        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/trinitypawlingthequad.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Logos2.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-post-image\" alt=\"Become a monthly subscriber at Trinity-Pawling School\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trinitypawlingthequad.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Logos2.jpg 600w, https:\/\/trinitypawlingthequad.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Logos2-512x427.jpg 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/>      <\/div>\n    \n    <div class=\"wc-shortcodes-post-content\">\n              <div class=\"wc-shortcodes-entry-header\">\n          <h2 class=\"wc-shortcodes-entry-title\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/trinitypawlingthequad.org\/?p=2849\" rel=\"bookmark\">WHAT DO TRINITY-PAWLING AND NETFLIX HAVE IN COMMON?<\/a>\n          <\/h2>\n\n          <div class=\"readmore\">\n            <span class=\"leermas\"><a href=\"#\">Read More<\/a> &raquo;<\/span>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/div><!-- .entry-header -->\n              <div class=\"wc-shortcodes-entry-content\">\n          <p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Netflix is your go-to TV app. You couldn\u2019t handle the commute without Spotify.
