Episode 55: Michael reads A Christmas Carol!
Episode | December 25th, 2018 | 2 hrs 34 mins
a christmas carol, charles dickens
Happy Holidays, listeners! This isn't really a proper episode of The Queencast. But Michael recently tried his hand at recording his first audiobook, which is the Charles Dickens story A Christmas Carol. He thought it might be fun to surprise the listeners with it, should they be interested in receiving the gift of him tripping over words such as 'genii' or 'excrescences' or 'laocoon' while making his way through the holiday classic. Or hey, if you can't sleep during the holidays, this might help with that too.

Episode 54: A Miserable Little Pile of Secrets

This week on the Queencast, there's good news and there's bad news. The bad news is, we've decided to put the podcast on hiatus and this is going to be our final episode for a while. The good news is, it's a new episode of the Queencast! You're invited to join Soha and Michael as they talk about all sorts of good stuff before turning out the lights and shutting the door. Don't worry, the episode is a lot better than this description of it would have you believe, it's just that the person writing it is under the weather and doesn't have a lot of cretive energy this early in the morning.
One more thing: Thanks, everyone, for everything. The Queencast loves you!

This week on the Queencast, according to Soha:
"This is a very special edition of the Queencast, this is the 'Soha's Birthday episode.' Today is Wednesday; it is not my birthday, and Michael just dropped off the mic to me because we can't record an episode this weekend. So I decided to record through the week and you guys are going to get a non-literal of my life outside recording the podcast."Editor's Note: The audio between 23:35 and 1:01:43 has a lot of noise from the road baked in, but the conversation is super good. It's definitely not unlistenable but just be aware of that in case you're sensitive to that kinda thing.

- Why are we whispering?
- Gangsta Witch
- Go burp yourself
