April 18, 2021Extra Episode: Artemisia Gentileschi
This week I am taking a break to grieve the loss of Amber who passed away from Covid-19 after a long and heroic fight. You may know Amber from episode 81, the Patreon fam, funny social media comments, and more. She was a dear friend and a huge part of this community. She will be greatly missed.
Instead of a normal episode, I hope you enjoy one of the Rave or Rage exclusives from Patreon. I will be back next week with Inventions Part 1 with special guests Thanks, I Hate It Podcast.
Please continue to send prayers and healing thoughts to Amber's partner, family, and friends.
