The Ultraviolet Catastrophe!

Dirk was in a livestream! And if you can't watch livestreams (like Dirk), you can listen to Dirk in the livestream on the Roomwhere and DKPH feeds. They're great podcasts in their own right, but if you're just tuning in for that good HSEnclave content, Dirk, Danielle, and past guests Jade and August are in it! (Also Schrag, who's cool enough to hang with us, but not yet cool enough to be on Hope's Hearth.)
