Much better audio. Great episode. Cliffhangers are fine, as long as you continue to actually follow up on the next episode :)

Excellent show, and vastly improved audio. I think the first Endgame minicon was April 2006, which I *think* will make next October's the 10th, not counting the 3 Good Omens cons held at Endgame. Looking forward to hearing about Transparency next time.

Thanks for the improvement in audio. I couldn't finish listening to episode 1 because of that problem. Sorry guys.
As for the rest of the episode, it was (as Chris suggested in the intro) a bit of a ramble. I liken it to panning for gold. Scoop up a watery sludge from the bottom of the creek and start swirling. If all goes well, the gold nuggets will start gleaming in the sunlight.
And yes, there's gold in them thar podcasts. Thanks so much for sharing them.
