This week the Watopian Weekly Staff embarks on a brave endeavor: Recording the Podcast LIVE while playing BINGO! You can play along too - even in Podcast Form! Go to our discord server (link below) and download a bingo form. Whenever you hear the phrases on the card mark off that square. You can get a Bingo up, down, left, right, diagonal, four corners, or a blackout. When you do get a bingo please send your mailing address to [email protected] to receive a special prize in the mail.

MASSIVE THANK YOU to all that were able to join us on the ride to chat and help cross off the Bingo Boards! That was such a blast! We may have to do more of these live recordings - although we may have to pre-record the guitar parts :-)

Thank you all for the support this year and every year! We look forward to doing some great things in the New Year. We couldn't do this without you! Thank you!
