this is the last episode of the season, unfortunately, and this week, the humans are not here – pretty soon, we’ll be out of here, too – the storm is getting worse.

we, the select gnomish djs of gnewsworthy ghost island, are subbing for Alex and the davids this week. it is an unfortunate aspect of our physiognomy – or physiognomey – that we cannot see across the entire keyboard at once, nor can we reach than a few keys in the vicinity of the shift bar simultaneously. thus, only a few letters may be capitalized, and for this we apologize. Also, no exclamation points.

in this episode, we attempt a gnoble endeavor – to satisfy the listeners as well as the humans can. on this week’s podcast…

- fabulous gnome banter. we ponder the ungnowable, and question issues of gnationalism regarding hobbits.

- we listen to fabulous gnomish music. yes.

- we play the journalists’ tape, which details why they aren’t here this week, and won’t be for some time.

yours most sincerely,

gnorman, gnatalie, and gned, the gnomes.
