Patrick Murray is a standup comedian and co-host of the podcast Cook On High For 30 Minutes as well as a Star Trek completist. Why did we make him watch the TOS episode "The Savage Curtain"? Because we're savages. That's why. Join us to find out why a lava monster wants to watch a fight and to see how awesome of a great impressionist the almighty Kahless can be.

As musicians, we’re always on the lookout for new music or rediscovering artists that may have slipped by us the first time around.

Recorded live waaaaay back in February in a hotel room in Bowling Green, KY,  We continue our What Are Little Songs Made Of series with “Tomorrow Is Yesterday."  We sat down before our concert and talked all about Bluejay 4 and Kirk’s fighting techniques.
