As a measure of insurance against this channel being vaporized by The Powers That Be I have created a seperate one where, hopefully, all survivors of any disaster could gather, regroup and, perhaps, reformulate all things that are good in the Yates/deaddogsmoking world. I will be uploading audiobooks of a wide variety to this additional channel and any subscribers would be very welcome indeed. The name to look out for is the far from different I. A.

As ever, any support in keeping the channels rolling, and aiming onward and upward to some degree of completion, is very gratefully received.
