About this episode

Special thanks to listener Joel Warner who commissioned this podcast through our Subbable subscription system! This time A.Ron and Jim view the mid-season rock opera, "The Doomstar Requiem". We found it a lot harder to enjoy the Klok's metal fueled concert ways in a single concentrated, extra length dose, despite admiring the concept and execution. We wish there were less slurpies, herpes, and brotherly love, and more senseless death, property destruction, and blatant disregard for fellow human beings.
