At the beginning of this episode, you all are talking about how January is a bummer after the Christmas cozy time. Paul likens it to the feeling of "dad got home." And I don't know if anybody else got that, but I certainly did. Not to get too dark, but at a certain point in my childhood, there was definitely a distinct sinking feeling when Dad got home from work. I always appreciate Paul 's sense of humor using the darkness of reality.

Great podcast PFT and Janie! Did you know that Elon Musk shares a birthday with King Henry VIII and Mel Brooks? Kinda appropriate considering the plethora of wives Henry VIII had and that Mel Brooks wrote “Springtime for Hitler in Germany.”

As I lay awake at 6am ct time, trying not to wake my husband reading this post…the clip started to play, sweet Janie and Paul’s “hheeeyyyy” immediately woke him up. My phone is as excited and I am. 💕

I had an absolutely lousy Valentine’s Day so this cheered me up so much. I put on the reversal of fortune watch along (what a film for 14 Feb) and I can’t stop laughing at PFT commenting on one of the lawyer’s extremely colourful vests

Going to expose my obsession with dropout and pods but (1) it was so cool to hear about behind the scenes of VIP, thanks Paul and (2) when PFT was talking about how impressive D20’s success is my partner said I was grinning as if proud that the podcast people I liked were praising the DND people I like.

JHD: is the Lowe’s commercial the one where after the audition your scene partner yelled something awkward about a van that turned out to have people in it? If so - omg that director finally cast you! The curse is lifted!
