Summary: ...we know. We are very aware that these episodes are months past the point of relevancy. We joked about not getting these episodes out until April and then played ourselves. Believe us, we know. But, we had these episodes sitting on the shelf, and with everything going on in the world at the moment we thought, “Maybe we release them anyway. Who doesn’t want some feel-good holiday fic right now? Even though they were recorded in October and the tags are wildly inappropriate for early spring?” So, we’re releasing our 2019 holiday episodes - Thanksgiving through New Year’s Eve - into the world now, in May of 2020, because time is meaningless and joy should be seized upon whenever possible… and also as a lead up to The Fic List Season Two, hitting the airwaves in just a few weeks!!! Surprise? :P Also, our friend Stephen Indrisano at Indrisano Audio (https://stindris.wixsite.com/indrisanoaudio) edited these episodes and made us sound amazing, so thank you Stephen! If you ever need yourself some audio editing, he’s the best! Find us on twitter (@FicList) and tumblr (https://theficlistpodcast.tumblr.com/) to keep in touch and catch all our latest updates!
