Tom, I got this episode on my phone and the title didn't have a number before it. I couldn't put my finger on what was different until I started it up and I heard you say "episode 252". I was like "what? I missed episode 250! That was going to be the big musical episode though. Wait weren't those ghost kids singing? I better go back and listen to it again." I finished listening to the intro wondering why the feedback was all for episodes in the 220's and 230's or Dresden related. Then had to go back and check the other episodes. But those were numbered, so I thought, "Oh, I must have misheard." and started the new episode again. Sure enough it was announced as episode 252 in the intro. And I had to figure out where in my binge AP listening did I remember singing kids from. Turns out I was thinking of the Creepy Kids in the Beer and Battle Pathfinder game. Apparently creepy children come with the territory of Standard Door Ghosts. So luckily I haven't missed the landmark musical episode, but you ruined my immersion Tom. How can I be expected to keep up with continuities across multiple different AP podcasts when I have to backtrack to check what number I'm on? I'm going to listen to this episode now that I've finished my critique of your announcership skillz. Keep up the fine role-playing and storytelling. This is one of the few podcast I'm caught up on and I don't play at %120 speed so I can savor it as opposed to get through backlog faster.
