So there was a flood. Things were lost and that's never any fun. We ended up losing the original episode 15 and so what should have been Episode 16 has now taken it's place. We recorded as Jason's place to test through all of our equipment and just to make sure we had some extra content recorded since we went through our backlog during the holiday season. Every once in a while you may hear an odd echo or Stark (Jason's dog) running around but I did my best to clean all that out in the expedited editing process to get this episode out. I cut over 90 minutes out of this and it still ended up being our longest episode yet. This week we talk the flood, Scott is finally forced to play Tech Tree: the Game, and Mark is overly concerned that he talked an enormous amount. Thanks to Jason for the space and just being on the pod again. It's great to have his voice to start out the year with us.

--- Notes!
1) There are a lot more ums and uhs in the audio this time around. Blame that on the excessively abbreviated editing period and wanting to get this out even remotely on time. If/when I need to come back in and remove the preamble about the flood and episode numbering, I'll probably end up cleaning those up too. (And frankly while those filler words don't make for the cleanest audio ever, it's the inhales that drive me up a wall much, much more.)
2) When talking about Weirdwood Manor I realized just how much Scott and I talk with our hands and that is just a terrible thing to translate to an audio medium.
3) We know its Sagitarius A*, we just didn't say the * part.
4) Scott would have been talking about the new 2023 version of Castles of Burgundy from Awaken Realms, not the 2019 reprint from Alea.
5) If anybody has a spare box for Kingsburg (2nd ed preferably, but I don't really care at this point), please reach out! That was one of the games that was lost.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
