QUICK NOTE: Sooo I was getting over a bad cold when we recorded and, high on Dayquil, I messed up a setting; recording through the wrong mic. The audio is lower-quality than I aim for, but I think you’ll still find this a fascinating conversation. Thank you for your understanding. I’m feeling much better now.
