This attempt at an episode was so shoddily made, that we decided to leave it in-tack for you to get a "Behind-the-Scenes" listen at our shenanigans. We truly had the best of intentions when recording this, but sleep deprivation has taken its toll. This episode has been posted uncut, unfinished, and with plenty of shame to wallow in.

Surely, things will calm down into the new year, and we will get back to our regularly scheduled programming.

Also, after not winning the National Championship, I don't know that we will be able to post again for a while. Life is hard. It's even harder at the top! We will not be speaking about this loss any further.

Thank You, and Godspeed.
