In a word, yes. A&D has a new Creative Director (Jason, who replaced Mike) and Charles Gray was appointed the “lead” of the HHN design core (which included Blake and Patrick before Patrick was let go). Charles and Jason are big on original content and stories.
This is fair. Without the context of your broader reasoning, your post about canceling (show shortly after the plexi rumor was posted) implied direct causation. Canceling because of the totality of mitigation measures taking place during the event is understandable. I would argue they should have always been expected as a possibility though. None of this, in the broadest sense, should be that surprising.
Isn't Patrick in charge of HOS Orlando this year?
Not thread crapping or anything, but thought HHN365 said that (any misrepresentation is my own dumb self and not the podcast).
I'm doing HoS for at least one night and anybody too hurt by NNH might want to drown their tears checking it out for a night or two.
