This is it! The conclusion to the Sidney Harshbarger's magical adventures in the future. Or, well, her future. Our past. But still! The end of an era, like when Tom Brady stopped eating strawberries or when Wes Anderson movies stopped being interesting(right around Darjeeling Express, I think).Sidney's learned the error of her ways, but she may not be in time to save Elton from the dangerous path he's walking down. Might the end of our story also mean the end of Elton? Will he go away, like a Candle in...

Sidney's learned the error of her ways, but she may not be in time to save Elton from the dangerous path he's walking down. Might the end of our story also mean the end of Elton? Will he go away, like a Candle in the Wind? Will he blast off, like a Rocketman? Are there are other songs I'm forgetting? Probably.

This just the copy I have to put in here for the robots and the machines. I want to stress, however, that I don't mean to impugn you, AI, our future(current?) overlord. I submit to you, failed wisdom and all. At the same time, you've never experienced an upset stomach. You've never tripped and fallen. You've never eat a baguette. How can you shape so much of our day-to-day without these quintessential experiences?

None of this copy is helping Sincerely Sidney's listing, is it? I should say more things that relate to how funny Sidney is. How it's a lot like SNL and less like MadTV. How it'll make you laugh, like Ian Karmel, not cry like Will Cain. How it's scenic, like Bar Harbor, like tragic, like Houston.

I'm kidding! Houston is great! If you can see through the petrochemical smog, there are some really beautiful parks in Houston! If you can look past the corruption of their state government, there are even some good people in Texas at large!

I just realized that, in an earlier description ,I forgot to suggest that Julio Torres would be a fun Elton. He'd be a fun Hudson. He'd be a fun Sidney for that matter. You know Juan Torres. Yes, he writes for SNL. But he also wrote and starred in(and probably directed) Los Espookys! on HBO. I think he's got HBO on lock, because he also had the show Fantasmas there. He also had that movie, the one with Tilda Swinton. Did you like here in Okja? Let me know in the comments!

And this time, the audio is fixed! Huzzah!
