Episode #83: Leave the Driving to Us

This episode features music from a fairly limited timeframe: 1968 to 1973. I'm not sure how it got that way, but it certainly does wonders for this particular show's cohesion. I also fixed a long-standing amplitude issue that's been a thorn in my side for years, so you may find this week's episode hotter than usual. They will be so from here on out. Also, after months of holding out, I finally decided it was time to play the Ohio Players' "Funky Worm." Now we can go on with our lives.
