Thank you so much to everyone who reached out over the last month between episodes.  I know I probably sound like a broken record with "life getting in the way of the podcast", but that has been my reality over the last several months.  And given that this episode was recorded Monday, November 11th and only being released on Saturday November 16th, it still hasn't let up.  Going forward in an attempt to keep a regular schedule, I am officially switching to an every-other-week recording schedule.  The weekly schedule just is not feasible right now.  There will be a planned hiatus from mid-December until after the first of the new year when I'll resume recording every other week.  Again, thank you for bearing with me and understanding.
