BSP Episode 304: Downfall

Point one:  Apparently, someone’s cell phone was too close to the recorder and because of that we kept getting random line noise on the recording.  At least that is what “science” would have you believe. Personally, I’m of the mind that it was Hitler’s ghost coming to haunt our recording.  I cleaned up a good bit of the audio, but there is still some random parts that have buzzing and crackling in them.

 

Point two:  This movie was too much of a bummer to write show notes for… that, or we are still too lazy to do them ourselves.  By we, I mean me.
