I don't have a delayed flight to blame for the oddness of this episode this time. It was a mad jetlagged scramble of sorts and astute listeners can hear the seams of possible other segments throughout. But we march forward.

In some fonts, III and Ill look the same, don't they.
And not all the Czech diacritical marks appear so for some readers, things may look as weird as they sound.
