Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
In unadulterated good news, Tom Scola has reported elsewhere that Ben Browder will be on Doctor Who.
I have spent all morning running around communicating things. I'm not sure how this will go down on my time sheet. There were a lot of things.
Now I have to go to lunch with a vendor guy who thinks I'm an in to a lot of things I can't get him into. So it will be a lunch of smiling and bluffing and trying to get information from him instead, at which point he pays the bill.

Much surgery~ma, Suzi!
I have no family Prohibition stories. That I know of. Both of my grandfathers were traveling salesmen at some point during the 30s, but there's nothing in the family lore about them running anything more interesting than coffee. (Pro tip: if you want to survive a Great Depression with ease, sell coffee to Swedish and Finnish immigrant communities. Granddad saved enough to buy the family homestead from his father-in-law.)

And that right there is what it took to get me interested in watching again.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Are you of Irish descent, Sue?
Half. But that was not the rumrunning side. My grandfather was from St. Pierre and worked as an agent for the Bronfman family selling booze to rumrunners.
Heh. I asked because my Irish great-grandfather was successful (until he was gunned down) during Prohibition (that's right, the IRISH invented the drive-by - Represent!) Of course, I'm also told my paternal great-grandfather on the non-Irish side ran "all the beer in New Jersey", so I guess it was good times for all of the enterprising types.
