My knee broke! The podcast is bad luck for me, I swear. Every time I promise to do it, something horrible happens to me.

That being said, this was one rockin' show. I can't wait for TIFF!

Note to self: don't schedule Vasta into any more podcasts, lest he be struck by lightning.

Johnny / September 3, 2007 at 11:23 PM

What a fun time it was recording this... a fun listen too. See you guys at TIFF!
