Had a really rad time talking to Sean on this podcast that made me dredge up a story of participating in Odyssey of the Mind in 3rd grade.

This past weekend, we suffered a break-in at PSU, which included the Rat's Nest, the show's recording studio. I'm safe and sound, but the damage included equipment pretty vital for recording the show—namely, the stuff that actually does the recording. You definitely need that, it turns out.

Cursed comps from our Ben Barry have just hatched! Check them out and listen—we talked about edible arrangements for Spring, the secondary market for guillotines, and realizing that it’s time (for Frasier) to move on (from the hit NBC sitcom Frasier). Find it at dididothat.design & other pod places!
Three birds and their weedeater sibling hatch out of the nasty edible easter grass that looks like weedeater threadA guillotine (cutter) for sale on Facebook Marketplace that will almost certainly get 30 separate accidental "Hi, is this available?" messages before one real buyer emerges.Fun fact: Frasier actually wasn't intending to go to Chicago; SFO was just so foggy that they had to reroute to O'Hare

I’ve been calling the three images I make from each episode’s description “cursed comps” to myself for a while. These 3 were taken from our latest ep with Alyssa Walker! Check out dididothat.design to read that description and maybe understand what’s going on here?
