The gang sounds off on what they've been watching this last biweek - Red with The Pitt and Rose of Versailles, Indigo brings in Battlebots, and Blue talks about Mussolini: Son Of The Century and floats the idea of a Pacific Rim Jaeger fashion week! (And then we briefly talk about how none of us have watched Thunderbolts*)

Hello internet citizens! You may recall the tumultous times of this year's early months where Patreon made us change around our entire billing system and consequently rework all our tiers, since the change from per-video to per-month meant every tier needed to be multiplied by a factor of 2 to 5 in order to stay level. After three months of delay, they finally switched us over (yay!) but then we learned that two of our tiers, the $5 and $25, would be billed incorrectly the following month, be...

Also we sprinkle in some Daredevil Season 2 ThoughtsTM at the end.

TL;DR: Your bill might look weird this month, but it'll fix itself in a month.
SO. I talked Patreon today, and they gave me some guidance on what everyone's billing will look like for this month.
First off, nobody will get double-charged for the 3 paid video posts this month on top of the new monthly bill, Patreon will switch you over at your next bill based on your personal Join Date. That's actually pretty straightforward and clean. Yay Patreon.
Now, if you'...

Cleo is enjoying the new floral wallpaper.
But also, holy heck Patreon finally did it, they switched us over to per-month billing yaaaaaaaaay! I did some tweaking to the tiers to update the names prices and descriptions, but you all should be in the same tier as before – exception being the Circle 1: Limbo patrons who are now in the After-After Show-Show Tier-Tier.
The one question we want to put to you now is: Do we make a new entry-tier?
I'd write a description, but you should be able to infer what you need to know from context clues and my highly expressive eyes. Have fun!

Right off the bat – Patreon's billing change will happen any day now, hopefully? We've posted various updates about patreon's switch from per-video billing to per-month. It was supposed to click over weeks ago, but didn't, and even communicating with Patreon directly hasn't helped us get a sense of when. They promised it'll happ...

But also, QUICK UPDATE on the switch from PER-VIDEO billing to PER-MONTH: Our page was scheduled to migrate from per-video billing to per-month back on March 3rd. However, the change hasn't processed yet.
I've been in contact with Patreon and they apologized profusely – they say they're overbooked on pages to migrate and are workin...

HI PATRONS, QUICK NOTE: Patreon was supposed to migrate our page yesterday from per-creation billing to per-month, but they've informed me that they're experiencing a backlog and have not yet processed our changeover. We're hoping it gets resolved sometime this week, and we'll let you ...

She's giving me side-eye because I bumped my knee into a table moving to get this angle and ever-so-slightly woke her up.
TWO QUICK NOTES:
1) The patreon tier-migration from pay-per-video to pay-per-month will happen on March 3rd. For whatever reason, Patreon doesn't let you migrate on the 29, 30, 31, or 1st of a month, nor on weekends, so Monday March 3rd it is.
2) I goofed on the patreon post for last friday's Stradivari video and ...
