Hello there, Dames.

Hello, there, Dragons.

Before we get started, I need to make a note about the sound quality in this episode and the next.

As we recorded our first few episodes in this hurried rapturous idealistic fury, we failed to notice

that our borrowed all-around mic was not working properly until we'd already recorded three episodes with it.

It had a loud side and it picks up background noise like nothing I've ever

experienced in my life. We've since solved for the problems we were having, but episodes two and three suffered a bit for it.

It's still definitely listenable, but I just wanted to assure everyone that this is not the new normal.

We're so sorry for any inconvenience and we hope you enjoy the episode.

Hey, welcome, welcome to Dames and Dragons, the second episode of this.

You guys ever have those weeks where you feel like

you start the week and you're in hell

and then every single subsequent day you're going into another level of hell and you think well at least I'm at the bottom now

And then it just keeps fucking going down. Yeah, yeah, that's how was my week? How was your guys this week?

Oh.

Um, hard to follow that, I know.

Good.

Are you, Caitlin?

I actually, I can't quite follow it.

I'm like that asshole who's like going to try to one up you, but is it, it's not quite that bad?

I did get food poisoning this week, now I have a cytos infection.

So...
