Pyotr experiences empathy for inanimate objects. Secrets are revealed, but only bring up more questions. Brian is required by law to offer his apologies to the country and peoples of Australia. (This podcast contains scenes of violence, adult language, and - if we did our jobs right - disturbing subject matter. Listener discretion is strongly advised.)
