Because now you have to beg an immensely talented cast of voice actors to help you make your show with no compensation beyond your vast wellspring of gratitude. And that leftover bucket of guilt, that’s reserved just for you. That’s the experience of producing The Swashbuckling Ladies Debate Society, and today we come to you, dear listener, for help. Our podcast partners at TruStory FM have helped us to create The Society! It's a membership program designed to give our favorite and most dedicated listeners access to more behind the scenes content, early release episodes, expanded shows, and so much more (as we think of it)! Tiers start at just $1 per month and the team is unimaginably excited to start delivering the goods to your own personal, bespoke podcast feed. In all seriousness, our show is a massive labor of love, but we're all independent creators working hard to put food on the table. We don't enable any tracking material for invasive advertising, and we don't sell your personal information. And so we ask you, honorably, to grace us with a few of your hard-earned doubloons so that we may keep to the work of entertaining you. Thank you for being one of the first members of The Society. We cannot do it without you. And now, on with the show!

Old format, new ideas. ##Author’s Notes And so Season 3 has begun. I knew from the start I wanted this to be one interconnected story. By the third season, I hope I've earned that. The narration is gone, as is filling people in on who everyone is and how they relate to each other. At this point, I either have your attention or I don’t, and an exposition dump won’t help that. Why Rhodium? Nothing fancy, just a quick Google search told me that it’s the most expensive non-sythentic element. And gold is so played out. The Six are the kind of people who’t want the Most Expensive, Most Rare element just because it’s the most expensive and most rare, screw the logistics. In the original version of the script, it was actually Equity Electric who confronted the trio on the trucks, and Zinnia who separated herself to fight her solo. But I realized that meant that Carte, this big bad I’d set up wouldn’t show up until much later in the season. So Equity had to give up her slot. But don’t worry, you can’t stop energy, only contain it. She’ll be back, and not where you’d expect her. (See, I resisted saying "her return will be shocking” I should get credit for that!)
