We thought we’d wait to record this week’s podcast till we’d watched the first presidential debate. Which was kind of a good idea, only because talking about anything else on this particular Wednesday would have been irrelevant.

It’s the final deep dive from And Her Whisper Becomes a Storm! Shannon, aka ‘Ms. Curtis,’ gets deep into the oh-so-science-y meaning behind “Petrichor.” Also, we explain how this album title isn’t a QAnon reference, for the love of god.

On the downside this week, [gestures wildly in every direction]. But on the upside … we have music. We’ll talk everything through, and also we’ll do a deep dive into “Clouds,” song 11 on AHWBAS. We’re happy you’re here.
