All's well here at The Dispatch. The snails have started a podcast about gardening. They're going around to the different plants in the yard and interviewing them about their experiences. It's ended up a lot like performance art, but we're not sure if they are intending it to be serious or silly. We haven't heard any of the episodes yet, but they say that they have a dozen or so already in the can so that they can put one out weekly and have some wiggle room to take time off for their mental health. We're not sure if that's a joke either.
