I didn't change anything when I was recording. I just turned off the refrigerator when it randomly turned on about 2/3 of the way through this recording. I will need to rerecord this one for the final audiobook version. I did the best I could to make everything sound the same, but I'm not sure I succeeded. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/melinda-kucsera/support
