+<p>No, seriously, this is a podcast about the <em>tildeverse</em>. No, not <a href="https://tildeverse.org/">that one</a>, I mean the broader, more general tidle multiverse. The collective of tildes and pubnixen, and the fediverse, and gemini and gopher and the small internet, and all of the creative art and code and beauty that its tildizens create.</p>

+## about
+
+What is this? Honestly it's whatever you want it to be, dreamchild
+
+No, seriously, this is a podcast about the *tildeverse*. No, not [that one](https://tildeverse.org/), I mean the broader, more general tidle multiverse. The collective of tildes and pubnixen, and the fediverse, and gemini and gopher and the small internet, and all of the creative art and code and beauty that its tildizens create.
+
+So come on, *give it a whirl!*
