As much as I like WAN show, it does seem a bit symptomatic of the overwork. They go until after midnight on a Friday night? And frequently they call someone who should be home?

Merch messages have metastasized it a bit. Maybe they should just prerecord it during work hours, and answer merch messages from the previous week? Would be less interactive, but most of the curated merch messages seem to be general questions anyway, rather than topic specific questions? They could still automatically show current merch messages in the banner as the video goes live?

I at least hope they are either paying Dan overtime or letting him shift his hours around.

Yes he does, he gets reminded quite often to put in the overtime

That's good, thanks for letting us know, I must have missed it whenever that has been said.
