Hey, I don't beat this drum very often, but this is really an episode that's better for Patreons (with about thirteen extra minutes) than for the general release version.  In fact, the whole episode was supposed to be for them, until I realized I'd been stuck in traffic for forty-five minutes, and I decided to make an Outcast of it.  So, one more time: HERE is a link to my Patreon account, if you'd care to come onboard.
