Episode 2023-50: Helios, Flamingosis & The Kount and more

December 11, 2023 Podcast
A bright sunset is illuminated on a mostly cloudy sky, with hues of orange and yellow. Parts of the clouds are dark blue. In the foreground, on the lower-third, is a building and some deciduous trees with no leaves, and a sole evergreen tree. There is also a cabin the the foreground. The foreground is shown as mostly an outline, as the sun is not providing light on that area.
