So first up, just a warning that I get into some body image struggles in a couple of questions here—I have the questions timestamped in the video description, but just in case you're wondering, they're the questions at 11:27 and 21:33. I know some people have their own struggles with that kind of thing so feel free to skip those if you don't feel like listening to it.

ANYWAY, here's a much-delayed Q&A video. Super sorry it took so long to get out there, seems like a million things kept getting in the way. This was recorded in December 2021, so further apologies if some of the info included is now out of date. It was a while ago and all I remember is being very tired while recording this, and that it went off the rails at multiple points as a result. Hopefully you can get something out of it though!

I'll be putting out another call for Q&A questions soon—gotta catch up! Hopefully won't be nearly as long before the next one's out, haha. Anyway, I like doing these kinda lil solo podcast type deals, and hopefully you like listening to them. Thank you so much for the continued support!

Thanks,

Hamish

Feb 2022 Q&A (technically Dec 2021 but ya know)

CW for some body image stuff in a couple of questions, see description for timestamps. Recorded this in December of 2021—sorry for the delay and further apologies if some of the info is out of date at this point. I can't really remember everything I talked about but I remember it being very late and things going off the rails at multiple points. Thank you all so much for your continued support. 0:00 - Intro 0:56 - Top 3 SNES games? Favourite comfort food?

Thank you for answering my question about Black Country, New Road! I'm pretty comfortable in my music tastes, but to be honest the majority of stuff I listen to are bands that you and Nico almost certainly wouldn't care for at all🤣 but when I found Black Country I literally thought to myself "Wow this is something that Hamish and Nico might actually approve of!" with them being from the UK and experimental and all. And then it was hilarious when you guys proceeded to dunk on that band SPECIFICALLY in the podcast, so I just had to ask about it. I didn't mean to come off as genuinely offended or upset by what you said though, it's totally cool, but I was curious what you would have to say if I asked you to expand on it.
