I spend many hours integrating music for your listening pleasure. Besides, I edited out 60% of my one-hour interview. Therefore, in a sense, it's already sped up!As a bonus, I'm Beta Testing a new segment called...Question of the Week!To debut the question, I have a question about viruses, especially the Coronavirus.SponsorsThis episode is sponsored by Athletic Brewing!
