Dav (and the drug dealing ice cream van) returns to AuroraCast… It has been 8 months since we last spoke on the show and a lot has happened during that time. Given all face-to-face AuroraCasts were cancelled due to the continuing lockdowns, Mike has been a little despondent but we are back! It seemed only right to kickstart the show again with the mighty Dav.

In this somewhat spicy long format episode, we naturally develop the studio gear conversation with Dav giving us a deep dive into his own custom power units, soundcards, workflows, his recently conducted live interviews on YouTube, and way more. We also discuss ownership and touch on totalitarian dystopias, philosophy, psychology, the importance of religion, art, culture, alternative social media platforms, cryptocurrency, blockchain, privacy and; we put our tinfoil hats on to get into what’s going on from our own individual perspectives in 2020 and beyond.
