0:53.0	Hi everyone, welcome back to the Faculty of Horror podcasting from the Horde Halls of Academia. I'm Alex Westwood, Andrea Suisati, and I want to put my mouth all over you.
1:05.0	And all over our listeners and all over our Patreons who voted for us to do this very special episode.
1:15.0	That's right, this was your choice. And once again, a surprising choice just like this time last year.
1:22.0	We threw a couple of ideas out there. There was some that I was kind of hoping for, which have made it onto our slate for next year.

2:28.0	And it was before vaccines. And it was on Halloween night. And neither of us had seen anyone like inside indoors in two weeks.
2:36.0	So we were like, let's do it. Let's take the risk. Do it. So we did it. And I brought over some movies for us to watch if we wanted to.
2:43.0	But, you know, because we haven't seen each other in so long, we went up like talking and writing it. It was so nice.
