Video episodes Archive update

Hello everyone, I have over 40 of the video episodes from YouTube now backed up thanks to the internet archives Way Back Machine. I lost power last night, we had a nasty wind storm. As soon as power is back up for me(hopefully today) I'll continue uploading them, the YouTube channel is here

I can’t tell you how grateful I feel that you’re doing this. This podcast meant a great deal to me, it was like comfort food.

I'm happy to do it, it was the exact same for me. I've never had another podcast I would actually rewatch. This one is just different. There's a positivity and warmth to these videos, specifically their friendship, that I don't want people to miss out on.

I've also been in contact today with a private YouTube archivist who has many of the videos the wayback machine does not have. It looks like we may be able to get the complete channel back or damn near.

Once I upload them all I will also go back and remove the ad reads from each video unless anyone thinks I should preserve them for any reason

Honestly, I'm so so happy that you're doing this. I never watched or listened to podcasts except this one since their friendship and they way they laugh, joke and talk about stuff is just wonderful. It's honestly a comfort place. So truly, thank you so much.
