Fireside Fedi

@firesidefedi · yesterday

Good day all! Upcoming episode of Fireside Fedi!

Special Guest: @RussSharek@mastodon.art

Russ Sharek has been described by reliable sources as wiser than a rubber duck, a zen fool, a benevolent super villain, a talentless hack, a magical f***ing wizard, a misanthropic community leader, a clown (grand)father figure and an Impish Cabaret Rasputin. Each of these facts is true. he/him (and sometimes they/them)

So don't miss it!

It will happen on 22/03/26 at 20:00 US Eastern Time ( UTC-4 )

I'm really looking forward to this, it's such a great idea! Expect chaos, and me headdesking repeatedly when I realise what obvious things I left out of the instructions. Which is of course the whole point 😁

@Floppy@mastodon.me.uk I'm also SUPER excited to try this out. 😁

I did 1 episode with @logan@social.logal.dev , but he was here with me.

So I can't wait to see how this goes and excited to talk with you again sir!
