This is a jam-packed issue, so I won't take much of your time here in the preamble.
But I do want to give a huge shoutout to Flloyd Kennedy for becoming our latest Individual Supporter! She's also a creative, so check out Am I Old Yet, which is rumored to be starting up with a new season rather soon.
Because what I do with The End is so niche, support from individuals like Flloyd (and you!) are the primary source of revenue that allows me to keep this newsletter and website going. Last year was pretty rotten for many in the podcasting industry, including my strategic podcast consultancy.
But I genuinely love the work I do at The End. If you love it too, please consider becoming a supporter. It's less per year than you pay for some of your streaming services in a single month, and you probably listen to more than you watch, right? So please, if you can, in the spirit of the holidays or whatever, throw a little Xmas cheer our way by becoming a Supporter of The End.
Let's get into it, shall we?

When fiercely independent Princess Adelaide of Alpinoa discovers she must be married by Christmas in order to be crowned queen, she decides to secretly create the perfect prince out of handsome American commoner, Hayden.

But little do they know, not everyone wants her to be queen, forcing Adelaide to fight for her country, open herself up to love, and come to terms with who she’s meant to be - all in time for Christmas.
