  via GIPHY Hello Loyal Listeners! I regret to inform you that my internet service is sad, pitiful, and almost nonexistence. Seriously, Texas is not a third world country, but you wouldn’t know it by my access to reliable internet. So, until my little first world problem gets resolved, Nurt and Supp is on a small hiatus. I know you’re sad, but it’ll be okay. Like Frosty The Snowman, we’ll be back someday. Hopefully in the next week or 2 or 3.   via GIPHY
