Time being what it is, best not to put this off too late, and getting the first part out of the way should be relatively brief (especially since I get to piggyback to a significant extent on other people's detective work).
The Spreadsheet of Doom gives us very few offers for vids, and I agree with starfishstar that neither rachelindeed nor sanguinity are likely candidates for this particular vid. Unless a pinch-hitter picked this up (smallhobbit, perhaps?), cam_elot is the likeliest candidate.
I had been almost ready to go spelunking in my vault of Ancient Convention Filk Tapes to see if I could find a civilian recording of gardnerhill in performance (we established a round or two back that they and I crossed paths in livespace decades ago in a filk room at Baycon) when starfishstar reported a voice match in connection with their guess for this. I am going to trust that research, although I am still tempted to cross-check, because my first instinct on hearing the podfic was to consider gardnerhill.
Due credit to starfishstar, then -- and we'll see.
On two of these I join the consensus in notable part because it *is* a consensus, and I have no good reason not to trust the collective judgment of the gallery on the matter.
On "Like Minds", I am an outlier. First of all, my sense of the numbers is that there are enough contributors this time out that there shouldn't have been a need for anyone to double-dip and create two main gifts. For that reason, I doubt that either iwantthatcoat or rachelindeed produced art this time around; there are better matches for both among the fic. And if we also eliminate the two other well-matched artists and the likely vidder from the mix, that leaves one obvious candidate for a Wimsey/Russell blending such as this.
