Notes
[edit | edit source]Duration: 52 min.
One week until the big show. 18 months ago we were two people and one duck asking "should we start a guild?"
Now we're part of Noisebridge's birthday party.
Sgt Bubbles update: Crack stable. He's ready for his close-up.
Snacks: Flotsam's duck cookie test batch. Approved for party production.
