Author’s Note: Feel free to skip forward from 30:00 to about 32:30 into the podcast due to technical difficulties and apologies for some profanity. I thought the window that I was recording the podcast on had been closed but was mistaken. Once it was fixed I decided to keep rolling rather than restart 30 minutes in. My sincerest apologies!
