Episode #242: You Better Believe It


This week's horn o' several is loosely organized around the concept of '70s funk, which allows me to get away with a few detours without too much scar tissue. It includes no less than three forays into Brazil, a quick stop in Nigeria, a fraction of an hour in England, and a long weekend in Dayton. I like to get back to Dayton as much as possible, mainly to see if the pawn shop still has my gold medallions. I swear I'll buy them back someday.
