It’s another Geekdays – but it’s also the last Geekdays you’ll be hearing in a while. After this one, we’re taking the rest of September off. And this has nothing to do with the rumors that the Health and Safety people heard our writers shouting from the basement when they were doing a routine inspection… Despite the efforts that we put into soundproofing that place so that we wouldn’t have to hear them … Amazing, really. Anyway – it has nothing at all to do with that.
