We started off the show with Skullard being all croaky and phlegm-infused, and by the time we wrap it all up, he&#8217;s in dire need of a vaporizer and a towel over his head.  As it turns out, podcasting is all we got done that day as our plague-ridden Skullard passed out on the tiles afterwards, a viscous pool of snot spreading from his over-active sinuses.  Gross as that was, the slippery nasal discharge made it easier for Luka to drag her wretched husband to his nest for rest and restoration.  By the end of the day, poor Luka was feeling the tell-tale tickle at the back of her throat signifying that her beloved had shared more with her than Cadburry Eggs, clever insights and loving glances.  Both of our podcast hosts have fallen prey to the insidious bug, but you, dear listener, are safe.  The common cold can&#8217;t be shared via MP3 files, and iTunes has suprisingly good virus protections set up for its users.  Still, we&#8217;d be pleased if this podcast did become contagious, getting passed from listener to listener, spreading across the internet and polluting the vulnerable brains of podcast lovers everywhere.
