So…this episode got a little bit more personal than I expected it would. I had meant to record it in Houston, while I was there for what proved to be an excellent industrial cyber security course. I mean, the parts about Mass Effect 4 and Ultima 6 aren’t particularly raw, but then there’s the third part…I had a bit of a load to get off my chest about the Codex and the juggernaut it has become.

Always remember: if you’d like to recommend anyone for a shout-out, send us an email…which you can also use to suggest podcast topics, offer commentary or criticism about podcast episodes, and/or to volunteer your time as either an occasional or regular contributor to podcast sessions.

As well, if you haven’t already, you should totally sign on with the Ultima Dragons group on Facebook, or with the Ultima Dragons community on Google+ . The Facebook group is easily the larger and more lively, but that just means that the Google+ one needs a few more members posting content there on a more regular basis. Also, don’t forget to contribute to the #udic hashtag if you’re on Twitter.

Finally, there’s the Ultima Codex Patreon. A $5 pledge will get you access to Spam Spam Spam Humbug episodes the day before they go live here on the site, and you’ll be helping me both maintain and — with sufficient funding — expand the server infrastructure of the Codex to better deliver all the things you come looking for thereat.
