The Hard Sell 102: Germs (Patreon)

Sorry you couldn't get this one early, but you should get the next one in one (1) week on the usual schedule.

Ironically the illness that presaged this wasn't germ-related, it was a migraine. A big one. Vomiting, fever and at one point genuine uncertainty if I was still alive (partly because I had a jumper wrapped around my eyes at that point). So it's Presenterbot. Sorry. I've had offers to take over from him, but the thing about him is that the writing process and the recording process are one and the same, so it takes half as long to make an episode with him in it. In theory, anyway. That's the point. The migraine left my throat raw (vomiting is particularly fun when your stomach is basically empty) so instead of the episode I had planned (which is mostly written and coming next week) I quickly dashed off a script for Presenterbot. I tried to find a clearer and more sophisticated voice this time, and subtitles are also forthcoming. Just remember Presenterbot only appears in extremis. If I use him, it's because I have to.

This should have been on Patreon shortly after it went properly live, but Patreon decided to "schedule" it for no reason at all. Bastards. I might have a Rule The Waves for you as well later on, because I do need to get paid. We'll see.
