David Foster Wallace, and Gromit Podcast

Hey GromitHeads, Jared here: sorry for the delay on this one. I’m in production on my feature film debut, and dealing with a dang toothache. Nevertheless, I’m addicted to persisting, and getting this episode out for you. We’ll be back with a new episode on July 5th, and until then be sure to send in your emails, voice recordings, etc- we’d love to hear from you. If I remember correctly, Steve had a real bad attitude when we recorded this one, but what else is new? https://imgur.com/a/t0IDeg7 Questions? Comments?

GUINNESS WORLD RECORD: #1 Podcast Among Inmates. “Chef Jeff”’s whereabouts are unknown. If you encounter him, do NOT approach him- he is considered unstable, and extremely dangerous.
