I'm always excited when we start a new month. Desperately wondering who Catherine is.

Hello! My neighbor is a Middle Eastern refugee with gorgeous long hair. I've been helping her navigate some financial challenges and offered to buy her some household essentials this week to get her to pay day. She mentioned needing shampoo, and I would love to buy her a shampoo and some other hair products to make her feel pampered and beautiful. The thing is, I'm not much of a beauty guru and I'm not familiar with her hair type!

Any recommendations from this group for shampoo/conditioner brands and sprays, oils, tinctures, etc.? Ideally something I can find at a department store on short notice since she may be completely out! She mentioned the other day she's also been pulling her hair absentmindedly because of how much stress she's under. I just want her to feel cared for.

I've been enjoying experimenting with breeding and roaming around the map. I'm still fairly early in the game (I think?), but I haven't come across a single horse with a coat that looks like it could carry a Cr gene. I've seen dun, black, tobiano, leopard, chestnut, bay, gray, dappled, etc. I've come across plenty of wild herds and cycled through the horse merchant's stock. I really want to breed a palomino but I can't for the life of me get a horse with Cr. Am I just unlucky? Or are they actually rare in the game?

Hey! I'll be at Rose City Comic Con this weekend. I fell in love with the podcast this year and I'm hoping to find Malevolent-related pins or prints. If anyone is going to be a vendor there, let me know your booth number so I can find you!

Hello fellow listeners! I've listened to the whole podcast all the way through and re-listened through Intermezzo. I still cannot figure out what Kayne's purpose was in sending John and Arthur to New York to find the Order of the Fallen Star. In "The Order Part II" he calls it a "big test," as if he's testing their compliance. But he already has all the leverage he needs to get them to comply when he sends them to England. He'd already found the Greystone. He didn't need Larson. So when John made the deal to get out of the Dark World, why didn't Kayne just immediately drop them in England to find the Blackstone? Did the Great and Powerful Nyarlathotep really need a side quest to ensure they would do his bidding for the main quest?

That said, I did love the New York arc and I hope we get to spend more time with Noel, Oscar, and Marie in Threshold (the title seems to hint that Noel will be returning?). This question has just been bugging me for quite a while!
