I’ve got an opportunity in my schedule to talk about the Olympic Games and newer Olympic sports – and why I think getting some of these new sports in the Olympics matters (albeit a month after the Olympics because of how my schedule worked out).
I get into a discussion of Lost Media – and how being “Lost” is less a binary, and more a spectrum.
I’ve been using a couple competitors to Goodreads, and give my thoughts on the two.
Inspired by a piece from the PBS News Hour, I discuss how to tell if your fandom is actually mainstream.
I mentioned, when discussing my surgery, I would do a vlog at some point about my *also* having gotten diagnosed with Sleep Apnea, and having gotten a CPAP machine. I discuss how that process went, a little about how the CPAP works, and the different kinds of masks I got.
I’ll have surgery done on my face on the week of the 14th and 15th, and will be recovering for several weeks following – so I’m going to talk about the procedure that’s going to be done (as of this recording – will have been done when this goes live).

Editorial: Why the OGL Matters
In the wake of Wizards of the Coast announcing that they are revoking OGL V1.0a, there have been a bunch of hot takes that the OGL does not matter and it and other licenses never mattered – so I get into a few of the legal cases that made the OGL important, and which makes current open gaming licenses important.
