It has been a long time, hasn't it? I'm not going to give the usual excuses and promises that normally mark a new episode's release, but I will say this episode was recorded WAYYYY back in the spring. Also, the editing on this one was kept to a minimum.
Anyways, enjoy.
LAMLradio is back! Its been sometime since our last interview show, so this episode we’ve got the incredibly talented “FancyPants” on to talk about his latest Brickfilm, The Force Unleashed.
