On @thefunctionalnerds.bsky.social we talked a little bit about soundscaping @byzantienne.bsky.social's 'Cloud Wall', one of my favourite things we've done on the podcast thus far.

Very sad to learn of the passing of Howard Andrew Jones. A long-time friend of the podcast, we had him on several times. Our last podcast with him was in 2023 to talk about Lord of a Shattered Land. Patrick asked him to come on because he wanted to catch up.
