Hey friends,

We recorded a year end episode, but the audio got severely messed up. We had some strange latency that wasn’t detectable when we recorded. Unfortunately it’s not fixable and not listenable so we will not be publishing that episode.

However! The next episode will be a DOUBLE FEATURE. We will have our albums of the year 2021 as well as a review of another album from 2021, this review will certainly have people talking. It should be out by next week.

All the best and happy new year.

Darin and Rev
