Our end of year knock off live pod! We chat our best gigs of the year and do a fave segment from our last live pod alt fit pic, suss the video for this one.

Back to studio episodes from next week. The Audio on this one is a bit wack, but we had a blast, make sure you are at the next one in PERSON. We're going to be bringing these interstate this year.

We ended up donating $1000 from the bands fees and all the raffles purchased by you to Olive Kids.

Thanks to our producer Izzy Lewis for editing this one.

Thanks to Last Chance Rock & Roll Bar for having us!
