Y’all…you are sick and we hope you never get well.

This week we wanted to highlight some of our favorite moments from people’s princess and Emmy award winning writer Guy Branum, people’s princess and star of stage and Twitch stream Alice Wetterlund, and people’s menace and certified snack Ronald Young, Jr. Honorable mention and pre-emptive RIP to Meagan’s Emo-Meter 🌡️and a Very Special shoutout to the fine curators of the Phantom of the Opera wiki. 

And you all? You showed UP for us. It seems that we must accept the fact that we are MODERATELY SUCCESSFUL PODCASTERS??? Is this a gift or a curse???

But for realsies, we are humbled before you in a heaping pile of BBLs for BBWs totes. (If you qualified for a tote, we’ll be in touch!) Many of you are new Patreon subscribers, or upgraded to a higher tier than you were previously on! Many of you upgraded to our beloved Freekaconda tier. We learned that there are scads of Canadians in our midst, and murmurations of Meagans. All of you are officially our BFFs and potential spouses. So from the bottom of our hearts THANK YOU for showing us that we’re on the right track here, that we really oughta keep doing the show (sry MHM). You’re OUR ANGELS.
