Verified episode facts

• **Episode 12 source identity and podcast-only policy**: Episode row 305 and sole podcast source 323 identify Episode 12, GUID tag:soundcloud,2010:tracks/341145389, duration 3999000ms. Cues end 3991520, leaving 7480ms untranscribed. No YouTube source exists.
• **Episode 12 structural bumper inventory**: Cold open 0-4620, hotline plug 1048080-1081060, and sign-off/theme 3936960-3991520 are structural context, not additional canonical content occurrences. Late garbled cues and the final 7480ms remain unobservable.
• **Episode 12 named-game and platform limitations**: Zero Name That Name, Rank'em Up Rodeo or predecessor, Not the News, completed Friends Watch review, polls, or contest results. YouTube/Twitch sources are absent; chat, Ice, visuals, speakers, physical file details, and external truth are unobservable.
• **Episode 12 exact count and unknown inventory**: Exactly three formal occurrences, one phone row/inbound voicemail, one other prepared MIDI item, two total logical items, zero full voicemail replays, one probable partial MIDI replay, one outgoing written contact, one open contest with zero winner/result, zero polls/NTN/Rank'em/predecessor/Not the News/live calls. File details, chat, visuals, speakers, and final 7480ms remain unobservable.
• **Episode 12 fan-group and topic exclusions**: The Better Bronson Pinchot investigation is a major structured callout but lacks a formal title/open and remains nonrecurring. Lou Grant, VR, Ace of Base/ALS, Sekhmet, and other discussions are extended topics. A future Skype call offer and hotline invitation are not attempts or calls.
• **Episode 12 all that outcome**: All That debuts with two rounds and arbitrary number assignments. The second sum maps to a camera-roll or Twitter-avatar gag and Danny is congratulated, but the numeric meaning is undefined and no competitive winner or prize is established.
• **Episode 12 canonical occurrence inventory**: Exactly three formal occurrences across three families: All That 738000-1047860 with setup from 660900, Listener Voicemail 1305460-1767840, and the grandfather-touched Episode I figure sweepstakes 3413270-3553490. Friends Watch is proposed rather than performed.
• **Episode 12 voicemail response outcome**: The anonymous voicemail poses a Jill Taylor versus Debra Barone deathmatch. The logical file ends at 1373780; the extended host response is not replay. Both hosts ultimately choose Debra, an in-discussion outcome rather than a contest result or prize.
• **Episode 12 exact phone and prerecorded inventory**: Exactly one phone row and inbound voicemail file, anonymous Jill-versus-Debra 1341800-1373780, played once with zero replays. One separate non-phone Friends Watch MIDI/song logical item has two probable triggers and one probable partial/restart replay. Total confirmed logical items are two; live/outgoing/mock/prior/attempted calls are zero.
• **Episode 12 friends watch status**: Friends Watch is proposed as a future feature with a prepared MIDI and Sabrina counterproposal, but no Friends or Sabrina episode is reviewed in Episode 12. It is structured future-feature development, not a completed formal occurrence.
• **Episode 12 midi replay accounting**: The Friends Watch prepared MIDI/song is one logical item, probably triggered around 1794200-1844440 and again 1901360-1913360. Shared recognizable lyric content supports one probable partial/restart replay, not two files. Exact audio boundaries, physical filename, and replay completeness remain unobservable.
• **Episode 12 written contact inventory**: Exactly one direct written contact is completed: an outgoing host guestbook entry on perfectstrangersreview.wordpress.com reading F you. Prior Twitter contact is unquantified, group membership is not necessarily contact, and a promised future Episode 12 group post is not completed during recording. Inbound written contacts and individual reviews read are zero.
• **Episode 12 sweepstakes status**: One action-figure sweepstakes is open and unresolved. Every five-star iTunes review is said to enter; nineteen reviews are reported, but this does not establish unique entrants. No drawing, winner, shipment, or fulfillment occurs; a signature is proposed but not promised.
