2026-01-18 17:02:55 +0000 UTCOh this is already my jam! So excited to hear Lou GMing!!!! Although, I think there's something up with the audio at about 1:11. Because I think I heard "horrors of Martian rule" but I'm sure it was supposed to be "the horrifyingly amazing Martian rule. That is soooo much better than our inferior Earthling Leadership."
