Your producer pal Matty would like to apologize for any audio weirdness you experience in this episode. Same EQ settings in the mix as always! But on phone speakers, one of the midrange frequencies may buzz a little behind Rory for unknown reasons. Please enjoy the ep, and if you're a new listener pointed here by funny Bluesky posts about automotive podcasts that encourage you to read Lenin, we have two playlists on our YouTube channel of our more digression-heavy or deranged episodes:
