Show Notes

An episode so nice we recorded it twice! This time, your humble hosts David, Yavar, and Clark, along with special guest Jeff Bond - graciously agreeing to return after technical snafus thwarted our initial recording with him - take a look at the Thriller episode "Hay-Fork and Bill-Hook." In addition to spotlighting a memorably vivid Goldsmith score (offering lovely melodies, thrilling action music, and a good deal more), this episode also functions as a solid jumping-on point for those curious about the podcast. Grab your rustic deadly farm tool of choice and join us!
