Episode 249: Seventh Day Without Sugar

This one was recorded en route to College Station, with Patrick's daughter Tara running camera once again. We talk about Patrick giving up sugar, our upcoming Arizona tour dates, ROCK THE SHELTER benefit at the Continental Club Houston, the disturbing prevalence of autotune in popular music, and why Turbo hates killing songs.
