Shhhhhh don't tell anyone but we've crawled through the archives up to Episode 6 and created our first volume of a short series of episodes called "Can I Get a Rewind" containing all of our NSFW cock-ups, mistakes and deleted bits from the show.
THE PLAYERS: JP, Kerley, Rob, Becky, Davey, Adrian, Ian & Kris
OVERVIEW In this Expansion Pack episode we've collated our first round of bloopers, deleted bits and definite NSFW cock-ups for your listening pleasure. A couple of disclaimers:
1) The language gets quite salty 2) There is a jump on audio quality because we've clipped our older episodes which suffered from "well" JP's microphone balls up
In this episode you'll learn...nothing really but you can laugh at our expense
We apologize for the poor quality of Mark's half of the audio this week. We offer two possible explanations. One is that Walker, motivated as he is by spite and malice, engaged in an elaborate act of sabotage so as to undermine Mark in public. The other is that Mark (the editor, mind you) messed up the audio settings. I agree that the latter is too improbable, too conspiratorial, to take seriously--but we include it for the sake of comprehensiveness.
