While we do have Justin, Thomas, and Will joining us from Bleak Barrow, we treated this like a normal episode, rather than an interview one.

We planned on making this more of a serious discussion, but between an overwhelming few weeks at work, and the passing of Christian's mother, we didn't approach this topic with the same serious tone we typically would.
