TSPS #381 - Handy Talky (Patreon)

HEEEEEEYYYYYY, Patreon people.  Lately a few have mentioned that the podcast feed on here cuts out after a few minutes.  I wonder if the high bitrates have anything to do with it.  Today I'm uploading the low quality version of the show, which is 64kbps mono.  If you want to hear the HQ version, below is a link.  If this fixes the problem, let me know and we can experiment with different bitrates.  I know this is not likely to be the issue, but it's the easiest thing to try right now and I'm really lazy.
