S01E07 Mudslide (Part 1)
October 04, 2019 20:00 - 25 minutes - 17.8 MBThis is a re-upload of MO+F Season 1, Episode 6 content. Basically this is a test run of a new/improved media format where the episodes will run approximately 20 minutes each, a music bed plays softly behind the conversation, and I produced a new intro theme. For those of you keeping score that would be #4, and it's only half done, IMO. This allows us to publish every other day rather than once a week. It also accommodates our regional audiences average commute time. Full show notes and c...

June 26, 2019 22:00 - 1 hour - 46.8 MBSynopsis Show’s producer realizes he needs less than he thought to just hit publish on this episode. Talking about the bible, sorta. Tangents. Somehow settle on Will Smith as avatar for white supremacy throughout the twenty-oughts. Tek has a problem with his arm pits near the 45 minute mark. Pilot Episode of two people learning how to record an audio conversation for public consumption goes as well as one would think. +------------------------------------+ If you love learning more abou...
