    An apology for our unplanned hiatus.Transcript:Hello Dire Listeners.You've probably noticed, we haven't released a new episode in a while and seem to have gone dark with no warning. We are really sorry for the unplanned hiatus and lack of update.Without going into too many details just for the sake of the cast members' privacy, a few of us have been going through some very difficult personal events for the last few months and we have just not been able to dedicate the time, energy, or headspace required to record and produce the podcast. We are probably going to be on hiatus for a while longer, because we need some time to catch up with ourselves. We are very sorry for seemingly ghosting our feed for a couple of months, and we'll do our best to keep you updated on when we'll be back.Thank you for your patience during this time, we really do hope we'll be back making dumb jokes for you soon.And until then, that's just how the die are cast.
