Still on part 1... but I thought it was interesting enough to post that I just found out I'm 12th cousins with John M. Browning!

There’s a Villa Perosa in the Italian Carabinieri museum across the street from the Vatican. Probably not gonna help you for travel. Lol.

Jacob Nichols

Just want to say thanks for all your hard work guys. You do a great job.

AHA! We have a contender for the next T-shirt funding drive! "There is objective Evil, and it's sweet grits!" 😄

Helen Hunt was in the TV show "Mad About You" for those of us who remember the '90s. Also the movie _As Good as it Gets_ w/ Jack Nicholson. [I think her best performance. Not really a fan of hers, but I liked her v. much in that flick.]

The great war collab with Ian and Karl was on trench knives/melee weapons, and the kerfuffle is how I found C&Arsenal. So win?

1:57:50 -- The exact moment when Othais admits he decided to run full tilt into a brick wall... 😂

At 26:30 -- You've clearly been overthinking this. I've gone to my opthalmologist w/ an old pair of glasses and they've run the lenses in an optical analyzer and come back in a matter of minutes w/ what the general diopter was [yeah, astigmatism, so not exact.] You've got two lenses to check, they're called "Gallilean" so I'm guessing one is going to be positive diopter and the other negative? Anyway, once the optician tells you what the lenses are, they can probably tell you what they'd charge to make modern versions in polycarb. [Don't forget to ask what it would be for a bulk discount of a dozne or so for prototyping, and then if you came back w/ real #s for preorders from all the smelly nerds who're following this... Sorry, "SMLE fans". My bad! 😄] The measurements for the "frames" you can make yourselves and give them to your 3d printing friends for mockup. Stop trying so hard to do it right the 1st time and just iterate your way to success on the cheap! 😁

Absolutely

I'm just thinking... if you might miss a few episodes because of the new studio, why not split this release into a few parts for the non-patrons over that span?

Be careful about 2025 & 26, because I expect really huge inflation in the next 12+ months. I'm talking Argentina level - 100+%. Be very careful guys. This is going to be a horrific economy for the near future.
