Programming Note (4/17/20)
SH!TPOST will be temporarily moving to a biweekly release schedule until further notice because the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic has dominated all news and will likely continue to do so for the foreseeable future. This schedule change will start immediately; the next full-length episode will release on April 27, 2020. SH!TPOST will return to its normal weekly release schedule when news pertaining to the show’s coverage area picks back up.I have paused Substack paid subscriptions for SH!TPOST until I resume weekly releases as normal. Your payment information and subscription status will be saved in Substack, so there will be no need to resubscribe when regular releases resume. If you would like to unsubscribe at this time, please email shtpostpodcast@gmail.com for help doing so (although I’ll be sad to see you go!).I hope everyone stays happy and healthy in these trying times. We’re all pretty bored right now, so feel free to reach out via Twitter Direct Message or our Discord room if you want to chat or game together!-Jared This is a public episode.
