Thank you. I am effervescent in the way that a kid is after they've had a lot of sugar and they could crash at any moment because I got my shingles vaccine on Saturday. And this was just phase one. Those who know there's a phase two that hits you even harder. Apparently phase one was was no joke. I'm still getting over it, but I hear it's a lot better than getting shingles.

Yeah, I already had mine, got my flu shot and then fell off a ladder, fell off a ladder this weekend. That was fun. Washing windows. My wife's like, don't do that without me holding there. I'm like, the ladder is fine. And then I and it was a small ladder. So I just landed on my feet.

Well, she was my wife was watching out the window as I was there. And so she just saw me go over. And I thought either she's had a heart attack or she's really mad. And I didn't know which I looked up and she was just. Giving me the glare.

I know a basketball player who would tell me that whenever he got hurt, he was thinking, my mom's watching and I got to get up as quickly as I can, unless it's such a vital situation where I got a fake being hurt so that, you know, we get a call. But he was like, unless I have to milk it for a call, I will get up as soon as I can, no matter how much it hurts, because my mom will be freaking out.

Yeah, these things are important. These things play into our games even, apparently. Hey, speaking of games, why don't we talk about some games? Taking questions from our listeners. We've got a ton of listeners out there who write in to us, and we thank you for doing that. And so we're going to get to a couple of them this week.

One of them is Tony Robertson coming to us via YouTube, who asks, regarding campaign guides, what are you guys' thoughts on how much a setting should change game mechanics? I'm playing in a homebrew Dark Sun game, and Goodberry was taken out, and Create Water was limited. As a player, I like it because it reinforces how this world is different, but it seems to take more effort to get group buy-in.
