Thanks for having us on Brian. It was a lot of fun! Hopefully people like our cover choices and don’t hold it against us too much.
If so, I am going to support “I Gotcha Covered”. 😉
Residents, bigfoot, yay!
Keep up the fantastic job Brian.
After so long a time … many of their fans don’t want to know who they are.
So here is a hint that doesn’t really give anyone up unless you are willing to do a little tiny bit of looking.
One of them is part of an extremely successful and often controversial duo that appear regularly in Los Vegas.
I believe their motto a few years back was “Guns, fire, bondage … and some really questionable stuff!”
Penn and Teller? For real? We met them a year ago, I would have asked them.
