  • Off the Record: “The Fortress of Taco-Tude” with Taco-Man

    Every week, Channel 253 releases a special members-only podcast called “Off the Record.” This short show is hosted by Producer Doug. It is sometimes serious and sometimes very much not serious. This is one of those very much not serious episodes.

    And since it’s been a while since we’ve seen Taco-Man around these parts, we thought we’d share this special episode with everyone. Enjoy.

    If you’d like to subscribe to Off the Record episodes every week, join Channel 253 as a member and follow the instructions. Thanks!
