Critical lesson for anyone producing a scripted podcast, write out the scripts for a season BEFORE you start the season, then adjust as necessary. Don't write as you go. I'm going to have my rough scripts for ALL of Season 2 done before I start dropping episodes

Once again, I do an episode, & it's mirrored is in the news. I do an episode about runaway climate change, & 10 days later, there's a story that Quebec is in for a hotter than average summer, & that Canada's summer temps have gone up twice as much as the world average.

www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Quebecers are in for a hotter-than-average summer, Environment Canada forecasts | CBC News

Quebec is likely to see a warmer summer than average this year, but with climate change, increased heat can come with its set of challenges.

Unbelievable, 9 days after our interview with a timeline where a Seismic Zone in Tennessee starts acting up, this happens.

Fortunately, I don't think anyone was hurt.
