Look, eventually we explain not only who we are, how we met, why we love each other, and which My Little Pony we think Biden cosplays as, BUT ALSO: the premise of this bonkers podcast! Aka, why it’s called Chain of Duels (other than because we love a good pun). So get in and hang in there if you’re game--only the strong will survive! (What??) Also we are early days with figuring out our audio quality, it WILL improve! As Kristin eloquently notes in the episode, “We’re working with our technology and everything.”

Takeaway quote: “We neither have body boils nor Susan Boyles.”Amendment: Yes we realize twice a week for four weeks would have been EIGHT outfits (it was an editing class, not MATH)

Highlights:+ In which we learn how microphones work (KINDA! you're welcome!!)+ Some gentle pretzel eating, listen in!+ Esther’s last name is Jobdonovich? GUESS HOW IT’S SPELLED. (Spoiler alert, no it’s not, but still a good time!)+ Also, sorry, there’s quite a bit of talking over each other as the episode progresses (unravels?). We plead the fifth … of wine that was left in each of our bottles by the end. We’ll be better! Pinky swears.+ STAR: CHERISH IT ALWAYS
