The next episode of The Young is going to be a week late. I made a rookie mistake and inserted a bunch of NPCs into the next episode that I have to now voice cast. Delaying the episode a week is totally the right idea, it’s way better than subjecting you all to me pretending to be an eleven-year-old girl named Ellie Brooks.
I appreciate you guys being cool about it, and I’ll see you next week.
