Matt, your post provides an excellent summary — not just for newbies, but for all of us — of what it means to be part of this dom we call Fif. (So much so that I’ll restrain my pedantry and not correct the typos.)

The word “community” gets thrown around a lot these days, often by people who do nothing to actually build one, on- or offline. The Fifth Column, while being a highly entertaining podcast, is also a haven, a hangout — virtual and sometimes real-life — and a hub for contributory, cool, creative, free-thinking types.

This isn’t a “safe space.” It’s a sane zone.

Welcome, new followers. Thank you, fellow subscribers. Friends! Thank you, lads.
