As Craig dives into the repetitive rhythm of the legend, Andy finds himself caught in a psychological war of attrition that threatens to trap the entire studio in a permanent loop.</p><p><br></p><p>Support the show and join our Discord here: buymeacoffee.com/wyrdwessex</p><p><br></p><p>Buy our merch here: https://www.redbubble.com/people/saxonforageruk/shop?asc=u</p><p><br></p><p>Written by Craig Brooks</p><p>Hosted by Craig Brooks and Andy Stevens</p><p>Edited by Craig Brooks</p><p>Main theme: NRA-LAB Intro</p>","author_name":"Craig Brooks"}
