Recorded live 4/30/19, addressing questions about raw spirits, Dust, and daemons, and doing a little analysis of da Vinci's Lady with an Ermine. Thanks to everyone who participated in this discussion series, and special thanks to live questioners: Steph, Mom, and Dad. I think I quadrupled my viewership from the concluding video on EarthBound :)
