Episode 359

We record on Tuesdays and usually publish the following Wednesday. The lag comes from editing and writing show notes, and most weeks that’s fine. But with a fast-moving story like Claude Mythos/Fable, a week feels like a year. By the time this hits your inbox it already reads like ancient history.

That’s part of why I’ve been kicking around member options, including a bootleg cut we’d drop the morning after we record. No show notes, no final edit, just the raw episode while the news is still warm.

But before I build anything, I realized I don’t actually know if anyone’s reading this. So here’s the real question: are you out there? Hit reply and let me know. Tell me you love the show, tell me you hate it, tell me the bootleg idea is genius or terrible. I just want to know someone’s on the other end.
