Episode 33 - The Return of Bruno

A fairly underwhelming episode with digital clipping and me saying the wrong episode number many times. It's still pretty cool that I own all the "It Came From Canada" comps even if they don't evoke many 'great stories'.

Episode 32 - Actually pretty overwhelming

I'm not sure if it was the extended break between this episode and the last, or the raw power of the "Blow the fuse" compilation but I basically lose my mind at the end of this episode. I suddenly understand the root of so many of my social flaws and idiosyncrasies. Years of space between me and my virile collection of B-grade "lost" 60's garage hits compilations has given room for a new portal to form. I think this happens at precisely 47:38.

Episode 31 - Homegrownish

I struggle through the bulk of the Homegrown compilations (local only compilations released by the San Diego classic rock FM station) and start to feel bad about my life. Luckily a few 80's punk comps + 60's Canadiana collections come through near the end. Collectors should note that this episode begins with an M-Blanket song.
