Nerd Noise Radio RERUNS: "C1E44: TwoFer Tuesday - vol 5" (orig. released 05/07/2019)

With today's rerun, I wanted to provide the listener with a taste of "normalcy". We haven't had a truly "normal" episode since at least C1E48 (October 2018), and arguably.....not since this episode first released almost exactly one year ago. It's been a wonderful year for the show in terms of innovative, ambitious, and quality output. But it's been a terrible year for the show in terms of giving newcomers an idea of what to expect from it.   So let's get back to center with today's Rerun: C1E44: TwoFer Tuesday - vol 5.   For the newcomers, a "TwoFer Tuesday" is a free play (no theme), but in pairs. So, two pieces from each game. This is our most recent TwoFer Tuesday episode. Also, over on our secondary "dedicated reruns feed"....unsurprisingly called "Nerd Noise Radio Reruns", I am sharing our very first TwoFer Tuesday - C1E4, all the way back from February 2017. Not only are both well known and beloved episodes, both both episodes saw heavy feature in our recent Backtracks series. But most of all, I wanted to be able to use the two episodes to demonstrate the paradox of how very much, and yet how very little the show has moved in its time. On how much we've improved - especially in terms of intro/outro production, and yet, just how true to ourselves we have remained. I feel like these two are separated by a "paper thin grand canyon", the tiniest of differences......the hugest of differences.   I hope you'll enjoy both!
