Thank you SO MUCH to Ashley for commissioning this episode!
What a great ending episode to this season. I'm fascinated by where this is going, and never saw this coming at all despite the fact that (as the flashbacks show us) many of the signs were there. Also, we get a wrap on the Gregor storyline, and while I'm devastated that we won't get to see his hot ass again, it's honestly perfection.
Thanks so much for listening, and I will see you soon with the premiere to Season 2!

Thank you so much to Bernadette for commissioning this episode!
These episodes are the ones in which Nami begins to recover, and tries to thank Chopper for attending her, and Chopper FREAKS OUT over it. I feel that it's an overreaction until Luffy sees him and literally tries to hunt him down to kill and eat him. Turns out that poor Chopper has a tragic backstory and isn't used to anyone treating him like a person instead of a monster.
Thanks so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you so very much to Heather for commissioning this episode!
I'm delighted that we're getting into some really unexpected territory here, but also I was so unprepared for this shit to actually WORK that now I'm a little bit freaked out. I mean, Elgen Spears can be an evil genius all he wants when he's just TRYING to do something...but him SUCCEEDING? No, I don't like that at all. This is where I draw the line.
Thanks so much for listening, and I will see you all in February with a new episode!

Thank you to Bernadette for commissioning this episode!
These episodes are the ones in which we wind up on a remote, wintry island in a land with no doctors. All they've got is an amazingly youthful, fashionable witch with a mean streak and a mean pair of bellbottoms. And honestly I think we could all stand to learn something from her about graceful aging and the power of negotiation.
Thank you all so much for listening, and I will see you again soon with a new episode!

Thank you very much to Yama for commissioning this episode!
In these chapters, we get to a really freaky destination that makes Nita feel so disturbed and upset that she's physically nauseous, which I deeply do not care for. Meanwhile, Dairine is going back to the original location of her ordeal and her creation of an alien robot race, and honestly it's pretty heartwarming. My heart is warmed.
Thank you all so much for listening, and I will see you shortly with a new episode!

Thank you to Heather for commissioning this episode!
It's been a bit since the last episode covering Evolve, and we've moved along into some NEW POVs this time around. I'm very much into seeing Jordan through Brian's eyes, and I'm shocked at how insecure he is about her. I can understand it of course, but I didn't expect it based on the way he behaves around her. Which I guess is actually impressive!
Thanks for listening!

Thank you to Bernadette for commissioning this episode!
So these episodes introduce a new potential band of villains, as well as a pretty upsetting illness for Nami, which I DO NOT CARE FOR. I have to admit there was a fakeout in these eps that had me SO mad at Vivi and I'm SO GLAD I WAS WRONG!
Thank you all again so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Patricia for commissioning this episode!
This chapter is one where I start to get truly anxious in a way that doesn't feel totally safe. First of all, there's the fact that time is working against them and things are passing way faster on earth, which I can't imagine means anything good for us no matter where they happen to be. Then there's the fact that Nita's father is all cryptic and weird and seems to be doing badly but is extremely vague about what the hell is going on down there.
Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you so much to George for commissioning this episode!
It's the last section of the booooook! Nooooooo!
That's all I have to say.

Thank you Patricia for commissioning this episode!
So in these chapters our friends split up into two teams, and Nita & Co. go to the Crossings and meet Skerrit's ancestor, while Dairine & Roshaun go to his home and she gets to meet the family. Both are very illuminating in their own ways, because Skerrit and Roshaun are each so clearly influenced by familial expectations and obligations.
Thank you so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!
