Episode 7: Suicide Squad; Or, You Should Know What You’re Getting Into When You Marry A Man With Face Tattoos
Sorry for the late post, guys. I thought that I had figured the scheduled posting, but alas.
Also, the next episode will probably not be up on Friday, as Richard and I are attending Dragon*Con in Atlanta this year. If you wanna be on a podcast episode, say “Hi” and we can talk about what you’re into and where you’re from, etc. Anyway, we will be doing that, so our next episode should be up next week (as in first full week of September), but after that we will (or should) adhere to a schedule, barring any convention attendance.
