Hey folks, welcome to the Dark Horse Podcast live stream number 73. Our last one was on

the the equinox. It was. It was on the equinox. Yes. Yes. Yes. It was that way.

0:25.6

ran through my head to equinox. Your soul's just no on the equinox. We are now solidly into spring,

0:31.6

which I am pleased to say will allow us to revive a Dark Horse tradition, which is that we can now

0:36.3

start warning people that winter is coming. That's an honorable and long standing tradition that

0:44.9

we were forced to abandon when winter arrived. I should say if you are one of our Southern hemisphere

0:49.3

viewers, you may want to hit pause and return to this episode six months from now. So it all makes

0:55.2

sense. Yes. Yes. I would say do that indeed. So today we're going to talk about diversity of

1:00.4

things, including the fact that it is our basically our one year anniversary here for the evolutionary

1:06.0

lens, which is these live streams that we did together. We're going to spend a little time talking

1:09.5

about that the top of the hour. And we're going to talk about the politics behind the origins of

1:17.4

1:46.7

private Q&A for people who join us at my Patreon. And it is always the last Sunday of the month

1:52.8

at 11 a.m. Pacific for two hours. That is tomorrow. So the questions have already been posed for

1:59.3

this month. But it's a it's it's it's a lot of fun for us. It's small enough community that we can

2:04.4

actually watch and engage the chat as it happens and we leave those up for patrons afterwards.

2:10.2

So I think we're on our I don't know if you remember our 9th or 10th at this point. 8th or 9th maybe.

2:15.0

And that'll be tomorrow. So it's going to be awesome. It's always fun. It is. We get to keep an eye

2:19.8

on the chat and interact with people. It's it's different than what goes on here. Yeah.
