So, I woke up this morning acutely aware that it's Wednesday, and that means the penultimate episode drops tomorrow. And, for the first time ever, I got creeped out at the thought that there'll be a new episode of anything. This has never happened to me before. I've anticipated things, certainly, but never before has that been mixed with dread. Do I really want to know what happens next? Of course I do - nothing could stop me listening at this point - but it's with the awful knowledge that something horrible is waiting to pounce from the shadows, just a few short hours away...

I've had a bit of an opposite reaction: since discovering that Season 1 is 40 episodes, since ep 35 I've been expecting something big and explosive every episode to do with Jane Prentiss, or Breekon & Hope, or something, but it doesn't really happen. Even the end of the last episode *feels* big, but endings have *felt* big before (like the end where the delivery came for Sims), but nothing really came of it.
I'm not saying that I'm not looking forward to the next one, but I'm just not getting my hopes up.
This time next week, however, I'll probably be rocking back and forth, wrapped in red string and whispering "swing low sweet chariot" to myself.

That's pretty much the default state for the red string brigade, isn't it? Still, I'm really looking forward to this week's episode. TMA seems to be very good at *cliffhanger* and then "business as usual". So I'll be interested to see if that's the case this time. Maybe we'll hear from someone like Michael or Gerard at last... Spare a thought for the Southern hemisphere listeners - I usually listen to the latest episode on my lunch break, and have to wait a fair while to discuss it with the rest of the forum. |

Red String Brigade! I love it! Yeah, I usually listen to it and write the wiki page on my way into work, then have to wait for the Red String Brigade to go nuts around lunchtime! |

Come chat to me tomorrow morning! I want to hear what you think of this one.  |

I have to wait about another 8 hours until I talk to someone about the latest episode. I'll be under the desk if anyone needs me. Except I have to go and work like nothing's happened. |

Southern hemisphere listener here. I'm currently rocking back and forth waiting for someone to open the latest episode thread. |

It's that time again! I'm in the lounge of a 5 star hotel in Dubrovnik, looking out at a spectacular morning, and my heart is with Jonathan, Sasha, Tim, Martin, Elias...and Jane.
Do you hear their song?

Do you hear their song? I'm sitting in my own messy lounge surrounded by notes about crowd sourcing and desperately trying to give a care about my final assignments. Would swap places with you, or at this point, the MA crew. And...yes. Tomorrow's going to be interesting. |
