Side note, I left the notes at the end in their original format because the words there are normally unscripted, and are better off said naturally. if I can restore the audio from the original recording that would be great, I'll do it eventually for sure :)

Season 2: Introduction
Welcome back, My Dear Friend.
I hope you've rested well over the holidays. Now, let's enjoy some stories, shall we?
Welcome back to the Tempered Fables, my name is N.T. Cloever.
Come, sit by the fire; let me tell you a story.
Reviewing Season 1: Creating a Narrative Podcast, Voices and Bloopers!
SIDE NOTE: When I said 'targets', it sounded demeaning for some reason. I used that term in a marketing sense, ie. the target market, the 'right listener'. You're still dear to me!
Hope that clears it up!
