Welcome back my friends. This week we're discussing part 1 of the two part finale of Merlin S4, The Sword in the Stone. Unfortunately neither the sword or the stone shows up this week, so you'll have to wait till next week for the title to make any sense. This week you get idiot Arthur, snakes in penises, an attempt to rehab the character of Agravaine, and a brief moment of Gwarther that had us both crying into our mugs of ale.

Our new intro song is by Jake Lionheart (https://jakelionheart.bandcamp.com/), who remixed Merlene by bansheebeat (https://linktr.ee/bansheebeat), with vocals by Heather Milette (https://heathermillettemusic.bandcamp.com/). We have a video on our YouTube page that we created for it, because we love it so much. Please go follow both of these talented people and listen to their stuff.
The artwork for the podcast was done by Sydney Dean (http://instagram.com/sydsketched), and is absolutely beautiful. You can find her shop here (https://www.etsy.com/shop/sydsketch), and specifically SHKK stickers of the logo and us at this link (https://www.sydneydeanillustration.com/store/p/shkk-sticker-pack). The pictures of us are even holographic and they SPARKLE. WOW!
