Ooo boy do our flights get diverted this episode! Tangents GALORE! But we had a great time recording this one, and we hope you enjoy listening. An interesting song with an interesting subject mater, but *also* a jaunty lullaby.

It's been a hot minute since our last episode, but we got together and let 'Shuffle' decide our next song. So here we are talking about 'Ruby Through The Looking Glass.' Just a bit of a warning, the mic got a bit glitchy and so in the beginning, and then for a 2min block there's a lot of distortion. Feel free to skip forward if it's unbearable. Sorry for the low-fi production this time round!
