“JUMPING GEEHOSEPHATS! This month’s podcast will send you into orbit! The snark-casters of the EPC have out done themselves this time. They’ve reached the outer limits of their particular brand of out-of-this-world hijinks. First they talk about the planet’s first Nerdlesque Festival before diving into the depths with Aquaman. Then Schaffer does an epic orbital drop of his brand new free single “Rawr” with an “A” AND a “B” side. Then Charles Stunning has stars in her eyes as she shares tales of Mama Stunning’s trip to the Big Apple. All of that though is just the countdown to Mark Robert Turner’s land fall as he lays waste to the beautiful and spacious Studio 6C and has all of us dying of laughter. Why can’t Nelson pronounce the word – meteorological? How long does Charles’ telescope get? Is the podcast moving to New Jersey?!? All of this and more is covered in this totally shenanigan filled show!”Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
