*To be replaced by a different, longer wait. Yes friends, we're sorry to announce that Director's Club will be going on a one to two month hiatus. I go into reasons why in the first 4 minutes of this episode. But we'll be back in some form some time before fall, I'm sure. And until then I imagine some kind of bonus content will be produced. So hey, it's hardly like we're going away at all! What's important to know is that divorce doesn't mean that Director's Club doesn't still love you very very much and, hey, now you get two Christmases!
