“Sending the first scouts over, back from the place behind the dawn: horse, bear your broken soldier, eyes frozen wide at what went on.”

Oh my god, we have made it to Divers! Well, kinda. Instead of delving right into the first Divers song, we just talk about the album as a whole in this first episode.

We will start next week with our discussion on Anecdotes. All five parts of that discussion are currently up on Patreon.
