Azeroth Morning Radio: A World of Warcraft Podcast

A Quick Update from Azeroth Morning Radio

Well, good afternoon, you fine folks! Jibbs here. Unfortunately, we've got a little disappointing news to share with ya. Our good buddy Kash has been called away to help fight the wildfires out in California, and I'm (Jibbs) recovering from some dental work that's made running my mouth a bit more difficult than usual. Imagine that! Now, believe me, we tried just about everything to get tomorrow's episode together, but despite our best efforts, it just wasn't in the cards.

And friends, we're awfully sorry about that. We know how many of you look forward to spending your Tuesdays with us, and we hate missing that time together. So please, keep Kash and all those fighting the fires in your prayers. Thanks for sticking with us, friends. We appreciate you more than you know. Take care of yourselves, take care of each other, and we'll be seeing ya real soon!
