I had not considered that people would subscribe like... right now... instead of waiting till Friday. And I'm getting steamrolled by the emotions. Seriously, thank you all. This has been a depressing and exciting and gutting and terrifying and energizing couple of weeks. You're fueling me to the finish line.

As a Besties listener since Day 1 (and Polygon reader since before it was even had a name), it goes without saying that your new venture has my full support! One of the major catalysts for this new venture was unquestionably a huge blow, but I'm extremely excited by possibilities this new freedom will allow for your continued contributions to world of games journalism. If anyone can do it, it's you! I cannot wait to see where you'll take us all from here.

I knew you were gonna do something good with this, but this is far beyond my expectations! I definitely plan on supporting the Patreon! And the 1st episode drops early on my birthday! What a great present!

A great start. Wonderful to hear Seumas getting some fresh attention; his story deserves to be much better known. On a technical front, your voice sounds a bit dull and lifeless (nothing awful, just needs EQ'ing) and you're getting some mic pops — feel free to ping me if you'd like some tips (or paid editing help) improving the sound quality.

Thanks for the feedback. Still learning EQ, so hopefully will have it touched up before the episode goes live
