Ep 2EPISODE 002 | Extra! Extra! Bad Take

Oh, and our first old-timey radio skit! Housekeeping: Here's a link to the editorial in question. Our badass theme music is by Simmentall

Ep 1EPISODE 001 | What is happening
Starting a podcast maybe isn't the first thing you'd imagine doing four-plus weeks into a nationwide lock down, but we're all working through this in our own way, okay? It's been an almost indescribably dark time for many people across the world, and there isn't currently an end in sight.

Not a lot is clear right now, but one thing seems clear: we can't just return to normal. We have to imagine something much, much better.

NOTE: Luke is definitely a professional audio technician and natural vocal performer. You should 100% assume that any sound issues or gross/strange vocalizations are completely intentional.
