It had to happen eventually. Technical gremlins have affected much better podcasts than this one, so it was only a matter of time. Unfortunately, we ran into some tough luck with this one and lost some of the audio from the game.

This week I get to hang out with one of my favorite trivia players, Kevin Kuschel. I first met Kevin several years ago in St. Louis thanks to a pub quiz at a place called Syberg's and found out there that he's an encyclopedia of music knowledge.
