I love this series so much. Swaim, I've followed your work since Those Aren't Muskets and it's been a delight to get older with your increasingly open, radically vulnerable discussions about your life as you invite your guests to do the same. My partner is autistic and disabled and it feels like we've been missing each other's needs through quarantine. I've been harbouring some quite spiky feelings about that these past few weeks, but listening to you and Alebrelle talk, it's helped me re-evaluate the situation and reconnect with an understanding and patience that I had lost touch with. You're doing incredible work and Alebrelle is a streamer I'll be looking out for in future.

I can't afford what I'm sure is much needed therapy, so I'm glad that this show is back!
