In this episode you can hear fireworks exploding outside. Lots of fireworks have been going off the last few weeks in most urban centers around the country. Most people know this is just because it's summertime, and fireworks are readily available, and people are tired of being stuck inside with nothing to do. But there's a prevailing conspiracy theory that cops are intentionally setting them off in Black neighborhoods as retribution for weeks of protests. Wild. Anyway regardless of the reason you can hear them. Really professional setup we've got going on here. A podcast where you can hear fireworks going off in the distance -- folks, you won't find that anywhere else, I guarantee you that.
