We’re back! After a short break, the reigns of the show have shifted hands once again, and I (Kyle Yanowski) will do my very best to ensure that High Drag remains active and alive – bringing you discussions from the smoky bar rooms of New Eden. Coming back after a significant hiatus, I noticed that a lot of the Eve news sites and podcasts that I once relied to get through the honey-do list, are now gone. Sad as it is, we decided to touch on this subject and more, in Episode 99 of the High Drag Eve Online Podcast.

1. The End of the Eve Media Meta Era
2. Hypernet Relay
3. And much much more!
The Panel for this Episode:

Notes from the show:
The Poem “Eyes Forward Capsuleer” by Dranchela
Eyes forward, capsuleer, the cyno is not yet lit.
Consider your modules, your rigs and ammo before you undock, for the cyno is not yet lit.
Break free of the station and witness the universe before you, For the cyno is not yet lit.
Set your ship to fly through the vastness while you wait, For the cyno is not yet lit.
Pay attention, capsuleer, for those who have gone before you call for you to join them.
The cyno is now lit.
recording. Well, just like that “peanut butter in my chocolate” candy bar commercial, we decided to put the two together and see what shakes out. This episode is heavily lore influenced where it comes to the Triglavian Invasion. Honestly, there is sooo much deep information given that I’ll need to listen a couple times to digest it all. We are joined in the recording studio by Amarrian RP’er Arsia Elkin and Loremaster Makoto Priano for this powerhouse mash up.
Why am I mentioning this? We are fast approaching the end of the school year and my time has become something of a premium. Needless to say, the back end post production work kept getting pushed back further and further until I realized that …damn, we’re recording tomorrow and I need to get this done. Sigh…
As we noted prior to episode 95, 96 was a replacement recording for the missing 95 and we come in at the tail end of the announcement of Brisc’s return and the apology by CCP. We promise you no more Rubal, but we did want to get the episode out since we went through all the trouble to get it to download.
We recorded the episode and it vanished when we finished. Kind of tough to edit when you cannot find the file. We then got together and recorded episode 96 as a replacement and while we could find the file, we couldn’t download it. Not a very good start for Discord. 
Wars, the spring patch….Whew!! So many little things. Then, the bitter. CCP Guard announced that he was leaving CCP and Evesterdam would be his last event as a dev. Our shout outs at the end are a tribute to Guard and the positive energy he brought to a sometimes infuriating game. Svenni, we will miss you. o7 and Fly safe!
In this episode, we discuss the destruction of the very first Keepstar in Hard Knock’s hole, Rage. We also talk about the winter event “Operation Permafrost” and the winter presents, compliments of CCP. 
Tonight’s crew talk a bit about the December patch that will drop on the 11th but more importantly, I search through the early episodes of High Drag starting at episode 2 and splice together a montage of some moments I found clever or funny. It’s amazing to hear the quality of the recording change over the course of that year. Yea, a year. With 89 episodes in the can, I had a lot to listen to to find those. Soooooo….the montage covers up until January 2014 where we crown our new intro. I think from this point on, we may do a bit here or there from the histories, but for now, we hope you enjoy the ones I found.
