Hi. It's me. James VanOsdol. As my recent (and forthcoming) guest hosts continue to kill it, I'm finally in a physical and emotional place where I can check in and let you know everything that's been going on with me.

This isn't a traditional episode - it didn't make sense to read sponsor tags or play the theme song - instead, it's a full recounting of all the medical stuff going on with me since October.

Thank you for your continued support! As I mention toward the end, while I haven't always been able to respond to all my messages, I've read them all and they mean a great deal to me.
