I also wanted to apologize for the recent audio quality not being as good as you guys are used to. I have new upstairs neighbors that have made it very difficult to record without using the highest level of background noise cancellation. I'm currently in the process of moving to a new space that will be much more podcast friendly :) I appreciate your patience during this time! <3
