Howard here, folks. On behalf of the entire Writing Excuses team I'd like to apologize in advance for that which you are about to receive. You know how sometimes one of those crazy thoughts seems like a good idea, and the more you talk about it the better the idea seems, and so then you actually do it and are left looking back at it with a mixture of awe and horror? This episode is like that. Brandon thought it would be funny to have a discussion about dialects in which Dan and I actually do dialects. So we did. We're all very sorry. In the spirit of eponymy, I shall now write an excuse: "It was late, and we were so tired that we thought this would be funny."
