Happy fifth birthday to Spirit Box Radio!

A lot of things have changed in the decade since I launched this show. On SBR's launch day, it had 22 downloads. I remember how exciting it was to see it showing up on Apple Podcasts. Now, it's a bad day if SBR only gets 22 downloads *an hour*.

discounting my own vote which I placed at random to see the results, Dorian Gray & Jekyll & Hyde are pretty much neck and neck

Twelvelms Tuesday #8

We're getting deep in the weeds with this weeks focus, which is on Kin-Givings. This marks the first step a young mage - or mageling - will take towards adulthood. This is one of those things which will only come up tangentially in the show.
