    In this episode: We celebrate the end of grizzly 2020 and the beginning of joyous 2021 by not mentioning them in any way for the full 30 minute runtime of this episode.
    Also in this episode: Some stuff about Susan. Well, not about Susan, actually. But about her phone. Also, more Stanley Tucci gossip somehow?

    In this episode: The story of Richard comes to an extremely confusing climax. We may have ventured too far down the birdhole on this one.

    The Chillzone!

    The Chillzone!

    Hey, it's a heck of a day today, eh? No matter how things are going down, we could all use a little break from the stress and strain.
    So here's a single episode from our podcast within a podcast - The Chillzone! In it, there's no mention of... anything really. Mal and Mag pass the time for a lazy hour, drifting aimlessly from topic to topic. No goals, no stress, and (oddly) no Susan.
    We thought the sound of two people talking amiably about nothing in particular for an hour might help take your mind off of, oh, whatever. If not, fear not... there will be a regular SFS episode tomorrow.

Esther would be proud

Esther Szalinski’s renowned method at work. I’m impatiently waiting for Susan to have enough memories to be real. For now I’ll keep listening until the moment her egg cracks open and she is birthed into corporeal existence.

The meat lover’s omelette was to die for. 👌🏼
