Today's offering is a twofer of links:
Firstly, the first-ever one-man Consumed Podcast. Because
Nat is on set and Max is in California,
I ventured alone to Man of Steel. It's a shorter episode than usual, where I have
to go give it up for Snyder and Cavill outperforming my expectations. There's
also a short Spoiled segment at the end, arguing against the film's one major
misstep. I can't spoil what that is, though, unless you listen.
You can download Consumed: Man of Steel

This episode is dedicated to Vira Gunn, our second link. Vira is a wonderful young woman who I've had the privilege of knowing since I was in high school. She has struggled with serious health problems for much of her life and fought through every one of them. But recently her neurological disorder mounted and she suffered a catastrophic shunt failure, requiring three surgeries in three weeks. It's wiped out her savings, her family can't afford to visit her, and she is in far too much pain to deal with this.
Because I've known her for over a decade, I can vouch that
this cause is very real. You should not have to stay up worrying about money
when the nurses are demanding you sleep post-op. I have been stranded without
financial help post-op and it bankrupted me. She does not deserve this. We can
help her.
So if you can donate anything, it's welcome. She has a PayPal account set up right on her Tumblr. If you can't afford anything right
now, you can tweet this, share this on Facebook or Google+ or Reddit or wherever
the internet is found.
Thank you for reading, and listening. I hope you enjoy the
podcast.
