You always remember your first. Mine was delicious! Also my ally,
@jonathansfrakes
was the perfect cast member to star in the episode. He had already become a director himself and was incredibly supportive throughout.

If you are one of the (and we counted) 50+ people who were communicating with the scammer who overtook my account briefly, I am so sorry. And if they managed to get money out of you, please try contacting your bank to have the transaction cancelled or to execute a chargeback.
