Marv chats with John about The Basement Surge, a show that looks into topical subjects, and then speak about them openly, from a basement in Brooklyn, New York. Subjects that Marv and John discuss include the Dodgers baseball team moving from Brooklyn to LA, James Gunn being taken on to look after the DC related films at Warner Bros, the Coronation of King Charles III, independent podcasting, the question of how far you can go with open discussion in podcasts, and the effects thereof, and so much more. WARNING - this episode was recorded while Marv's internet provider was apparently conducting maintenance on their service over five days without having given notification, so while the show has been cleaned up, there are still traces of signal trouble. https://zaap.bio/basementsurge Marv's links
