Do you dig our show? Great! Please consider leaving us a review on Apple Podcasts, or one of the other podcast apps. Or write it in the sand. Right it in a paper airplane and shoot it at the moon.

And guess what? Two weeks from today, we’re back from our hiatus with our next full-length season 3 episode. Episode 32: To Seek Out New Life and New Civilizations. Beam up on January 29th, and be ready for some surprises, including a brand new cast member we’re super excited about.

OLIVER
So there we were, Norbert and I. One-time arsonists, on the brink of greater criminal endeavors.
LEON

OLIVER
I quickly became adept at picking locks, while Norbert studied the techniques for defeating electronic security systems.
