After a long hiatus that we totally planned and wasn’t us failing to successfully arrange the schedules of four adults with lives, we return with an episode discussing an original story idea by Alex! Another in his series of Space Ace Detective stories.

Content warnings for strong language, bad casino puns, a passing reference to grief, bad New England accents, and us loudly talking about how we’re in season two now and that’s why we were on such a long hiatus.
