It's currently 3:50 AM don't say I never gave you nothing. The first episode of the DxC daily trip diary from EWNA25

You may not know this, but Duress Crew has a weekly dinner meetup, and you're not invited. This episode is the closest you'll ever get. Billy goes 'round the feasting table with three members of the war band we formed to raid Eternal Weekend 2025. Brendan surprises us with his modest, calm confidence, Brad shares his delight with finishing his CE power, and Mike slakes Billy's thirst for potty humor, straight from the bowl.

Psst! Don't play this one too loud because it may disrupt your speculation! In this episode, Billy tries a new format, the "pigpile," and commits his schedule before doing effective sound checks. Fortunately, he's carried in the safe, mature arms of Ian Adams, Javi Lugo, and Brian Selden. We enjoy a pleasant evening's chitchat regarding PM's hottest new archetypes centered on Quiet Speculation. (For the record: Ian invented this deck and if you suggest otherwise, I WILL cry.)

Actual LCPM26 content inside! This is a timely republication of our stream from 21 Aug, where Nick and Jay give a presentation about LCPM26, to include actual dates and when signups open. They also field questions and solicit live community feedback about what LC should be and could be.

PLEASE DON"T - whatever you do - leave us a shitty voicemail with lots of potty language. Not that we could stop you, so we're trusting you. So please don't - it would be horrible and we'd be powerless to stop you and really hate it:: https://www.speakpipe.com/duresscrew

Lacking functional peers, Jay rallies the troops and leads the show tonight. In this episode, he asks the gang about their trip to the Sacred Torch Showdown and himself about his bad choice of friends. After a moment of appreciation for our handsome OST hosts, we chat results: Brad gets 2nd on Oath Spec, Nick and Jay do mid-but-positive, and Billy memes himself directly into a sewerpipe where he belongs.

Ben, Brad, Billy, Nick, and Jay thee Stream God have a round table and give a guide on how to have fun at LC with the various games and activities. Brad (mostly) keeps a handle on the show notes, Nick offers useful and pertinent information, Ben pipes in with his measured takes, Jay explains the nuances of stream wizardry, and Billy cries a bunch. There's a lot of actually useful information peppered in here, none of which is structured in a listenable or practical way.
