As a Note, we had to cut parts of this episode out due to developing strike rules to omit any dramas we mentioned that are on streaming services currently refusing to pay their workers a fair wage. We apologize for any choppiness in the edit or seemingly uneven talk time, as we recorded before the developing worker strike actions.
