(365) DotW Featuring ‘Bastion Rose’ and ‘All For The King’

Leave a comment

Disciples!

When this episode drops, I will have just returned from Scotland – As long as they let me leave. I mean, world-class podcaster comes a’visting? Surely I’ll become part of the Monarchy or something.

At any rate, Nate and I are back at it again for your listening pleasure, with some solid talk, some solid tunes, and hopefully for me – some solid bowel movements.

Enjoy!
