The weather is cooling off, the sun is going down earlier and the kids are back in school. It must be fall. Time to switch gears once again. Fall means a lot of changes to my schedule.

GalaxyBillies – Episode 18
The fleets face each other and the battle begins. Is this the final battle? Will Greklor get his or will he get away? I want to invite you to keep sending your Easter Egg guesses and Kinfolk name requests. The two people with the most correct guesses will join me on the End-of-Episode show.

I’d love to have you join. Thanks for listening.
