From what I recall, you actually fell in during a lull, so it was just bad timing. And I was Skyriming at the time.

Okay, 2 questions
1) Where can I download Hydra IRC for macs
2) If I can't use Hydra and switch over to a different chat client, am I going to have to re-register my nick all over again?

1. You cannot.
2. That shouldn't be necessary; if you know your nick and password, just identify yourself with NickServ as you usually would:
The only reason you'd need to re-register your nick would be inactivity. If it has been a while since you last used your nick, it may have been dropped by NickServ and possibly taken by someone else.
You can check whether a nick is registered or not by using the following command:
which will return a status code. If it returns "0" or "1" you're all right, but "2" or "3" will mean that someone else has claimed it.
Now, on a Mac, →Colloquy is probably going to be your best bet. I won't bother talking about the others because they're text-based, lacking full GUIs and thence mouse support--which you'll want if you're a fan of HydraIRC.

Can you walk me through on how to connect to the channels now? xD

Okay. The server is irc.ipocalypse.net
The channel is #tls
So to join, you would enter:
However, you should be able to configure your IRC client to join the server and TLS channel automatically each time you start it up.
Go to "Window" ↓
Go to "Connections" ↓
Select the server you want to join automatically and check the ★ box next to it.
If you don't see the irc.ipocalypse.net server in the list, you'll need to add it manually. The port will be 6667.
To set your nick, click "Info" up top and go through the options on the "General" tab.
To set automatically joined channels [i.e. #tls],go to the "Automatic" tab and add the channels with the "+"
Check the "Connect on launch" box if it isn't already ticked.
