Usually, I get this podcast up within 24 hours after its release. Due to scheduling changes and me not feeling well, the release to this blog has been delayed.
I said that if I wasn’t ready, I wouldn’t do it ayhow.
This week had a few stories, news, notes, the landscape and much more.
We end by the 4 hour mark, but closing stuff and the few songs we played made it over 4 hours.
