In what can only be described as the funniest and weirdest episode of the show yet... the legend Mike Swanson finally makes his debut in the pod lounge. We bear witness to his encyclopedic knowledge of Seinfeld and classic Al Gore impression... before, in a Dangerville first, passing out 3/4 of the way through the show. Meanwhile, Shane throws down some incredible E-40 cognac, and less than incredible E-40 Rap Snacks Ramen. Plus we talk about the Malaysian plane flight 370 mystery, and catch a golden News of The World update from Mock3. SOAK. IT. IN.

This week Tony and Mike from the new Detroit based heavy metal supergroup Finality step into the pod lounge. We go deep on the bands new record, song writing philosophy, and musical influences. We check out their first single Technocracy, and get an exclusive look at another track Pain.
