This episode on Talking bout Practice : th comedian's comedian, Jacob Otting, and th poet's poet, Shannon Burns, join th GM's GM, Billy Ray Stupendous, and I for 1 hour and 26 minutes of talking bout clothes, uniforms, personal style, etc. -- minus a 10-minute near-solo harangue/explanation/dissection by me against people who explain and dissect, i.e., nerds. We despise in others what we fear in ourselves, y'feel ? Keep yr ears out for Jacob's magick trick: blending into th shadows while wearing a rainbow sweatshirt. Consider what a universe wherein rainbows provide camouflage might look like. This is our best work yet on th podcast and (we hope) a prelude to thousands of successful videochats in podcasts to come.
