Many thanks to Alanna, Marcel, Paul, Jill, Dave, Maria, Udo, my mom, and the BBC Monks for tonight’s show.

WHO’S PAYING FOR ALL THIS SOUND?
well – actually – since you are here, please consider donating a dollar or three. These are difficult times, and every little bit helps.

…and in return, I will make a podcast every week for our quarantine’d time!
