Two years ago the MMW launched. To celebrate this epochal event that forever changed the face of podcasting and, let's face it, life as we know it, we dug up our very first attempt at doing a podcast. Close to 3 hours (!) long, we cover the Basket Case series and more. The sound quality is dreadful and we even run out of batteries halfway through! Listening back at the time we decided that we could do better and shelved it. After trying again we found hat we couldn't really do much better, but fuck it, and began publishing stuff.
Thanks for putting up with us.
Clive & Ron.
Ron & Clive talk vampiric Wagner and squeaky Audrey in da wood.
