In which we get a visit from Kid Apocalypse and debut a track from his upcoming album; Jay No-Prizes Community; Rahne of Terra is pretty damn delightful; Cable is an armchair editor; we finally release the unexpurgated version of Dennis Hopeless's version of the Noodle Incident; and you remain--to nobody's surprise--the best listeners of any podcast, ever.
