Howdy y'all, it's not a long announcement, but it's a big one. If you can't be bothered to listen, I'll lay it out here: We're going on a hiatus for an indeterminate amount of time. Thanks for all your support, past, present, and hopefully future. Stay safe.   Ending: Ooh Child by Kamasi Washington

The new Spanish Flu, the bug crowned above all others, that vicious virus violating the world with vitriol, COVID-19, could only keep us away for a week.
