This is the first edition of the Short Time Shots where I’m actually recording from the Speakeasy Studio in wonderfully chilly New Brighton, Minnesota. Let’s first be clear, there’s nothing wonderful about being chilly. That was sarcasm.

December 13, 2019 06:35 - 11 minutes - 5.49 MB

The number 12 carries religious, mythological and magical symbolism, generally representing perfection, entirety or cosmic order in traditions since antiquity.

None of that is scientifically researched because why should I be the last guy on the earth to fact-check things before I post them. The first citation is from my f...
