The Strange Brew - (1:16) November 29 2022: Jason is joined by the wonderful Ken Womack to discuss recordings produced by George Martin before his involvement with the Beatles, and that scene. It’s interesting, because I was actually thinking of doing a deep dive into George’s other production work is a podcast, but I haven’t got the time to do my own podcast these days, never mind another one.

When DL a mentions about not finding time to read, I think about how much that I miss reading because of being out working for 75 hours per week, and the time I spend podcasting. Red Rock Baby. Such Sharp Teeth. DL mentions the film Teen Wolf starring Michael J Fox. Not mentioned is that he filmed that, Back To The Future, and the tv series Family Ties all at the same time going from one set to another on the same days, and only get three to four hours of sleep per day for a few months.

This episide sees the guys talking about whatever they want as opposed to what they have to. First up is something called the golden issue award.

I was worried for the producer when Kofi suggested doing things out of sequence from the production running order. Producer Richard joined in the conversation at 24:40. When they were talking about anime, and Matt said that he was interested in getting into more from that world of entertainment, I suddenly had a thought of Matt being on the show Animeshoshin, and reacting to seeing a specific anime for the first time. how cool that Matt got a shout out for this show from the Dino fury power rangers? Matt knows everybody! The Witcher Blood Origin. Comics - Action Comics, X-Terminators, and Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles number 2.
