Hey, folks! Clayton here. Listen, I completely forgot I had a weekly podcast that I've been doing for the last 3+ years and didn't prepare any notes for this one. That is what we call in the podcast industry a whoopsie. What I can tell you is that this episode is born from my and Patrick's recently lived experience. What I can also tell you is the ITAG interns are so mad at me for not remembering we had to drop a podcast episode this week.

What is The Netherlands? Why is it a singular plural? Why don't they speak Netherlandish? Should the country be called Dut? It makes you think. It really makes you think.

We don't always set a new record for length of banter before getting to the ghost story....but when we do, it's 73% worth it, minimum. (But if you skip ahead to the 19:17:00 mark, it'd be hard to blame you.)

Come for the ghost, stay for Jeremy is retiring off audio filters, the wrong name statute of limitations, they don't end up in a bucket but they could, Pebble Beach at 1/2000th scale, please brain-dead me, I didn't say what kind of Californian, at least you have something to sit on, classic good cop/bad cop stuff,
