I'll keep this short. We have a Patreon. And lately the amount on that Patreon has gone down.

While income from live shows and merch do obviously help, the Patreon is still the main way

that we make this show and pay all the people involved, both behind the scenes and, you know,

in front of the scenes. Is that the phrase? So if you are able to and have not yet supported us

on Patreon, please consider it. It helps the show exist. And we have all sorts of cool rewards,

like director's notes on every episode, zoom hangs with the cast and crew, add free versions

of every episode, and even having yourself inserted as a character into the show, yes, you could

become an actual citizen of Nightfail. To help us out, go to welcometonightfail.com and click on

donate. Please consider doing that and enjoy the show goodbye.

Welcome to Nightfail.

Listeners, I've been thinking about old woman Josie a lot lately. She broke her hip a couple

months ago and has been recovering at home with her daughter, Alondra, as well as several beings

named Erica, whom Josie refers to as angels. Now, it's illegal to acknowledge the existence of

angels in Nightfail, but it's certainly not illegal to point out how loving and kind those

beings, whatever they may be, have been to Josie. I really miss having Josie around, especially since

bowling leagues started back up last month. Apparently, her hip healed, but she has had a series

of infections that led to her going back to the hospital, where doctors told her there was nothing

they could do about the polio virus. Alondra said that her mother didn't have polio, but the doctors

explained it didn't matter. The virus existed in the world and there was nothing they could do about it.

Alondra pointed out that there was a polio vaccine had been one for decades. The doctors closed up

their books, snorted, and walked briskly from the room saying, good day without making eye contact.
