Due to a prior commitment I an unable to get to the start of the (already late starting) show so Tamara picks up the reins and starts without me.  also in attendance are Lee and Beth (for a while anyway)   I join about an hour in but we bounce some of the usual slots for time.

“The meeting began with discussions about a new book and product line featuring Salt Spring Island-themed hearts, followed by conversations about smoking experiences and upcoming show content. Technical issues were addressed regarding Lee’s Drobo storage device failure, with the team discussing backup solutions and data recovery options. The group then engaged in music-related discussions about 1980s songs and AI-generated content, including plans for future song releases and streaming considerations”
