Where can you go to find references to a better version of this podcast, stories about horrific encounters with deer, and a promise that we’ll never do “Battlefield Earth”? Here, on this quality podcast covering Marjane Satrapi’s “The Voices” and Mary Crawford’s (a.k.a. David DeCoteau) “A Talking Cat!?!”

It’s true: we lined up a special guest, Aric McKeown, NoisePicnic Czar and “A Talking Cat!?!” expert (he even runs this A Talking Cat!?! tumblr); watched “A Talking Cat!?!” together; and sat down to a spirited recording that brought us closer. But it all went horribly wrong due to audio kerfufflery. So, without expertise, we soldiered on with a new recording.

Next: a Gin and Juice nugget.
